Hi Guys As the heading says, looking for a serviceable Right Hand wing for a Glasflugel Hornet. Any leads or contacts to one would be appreciated. Chris Runeckles Universal Plastics Pty Ltd, Western Australia

In article , says... Australia is moving to the US airspace management model. This, on the face of it, looks to be a good thing. Could any current US pilots who are up on this please let us know if you have a...

Did anyone fly a straight-out 500k flight originating in either the U.S. central or eastern time zones between Oct. 1, 2002, and September 30, 2003? The flight must be in a motorless glider with the 500k distance being measured from release to landing. If so, please contact me because you could be...

Here is the feedback on my trailer towing problem. I thought I'd make a detailed write up to share what I learned with others. I was waiting until I gave a real towing trip as proof that this fix worked. I recently drove from Atlanta up to the Sequatchie Valley in TN. This included highway...

Could some one post links or the manuals for the Borgelt B50 and B57 I need to connect ipac not purchased yet suggestions on which one. What software would you recommend. Also data logging required GPS logger option recommendations. Portability would be great also required for powered flight...

The Volkslogger manual states that 'During installation, assure that the integral antenna has a clear view of the sky and is not shielded by metal or carbon fiber parts.' (there is no similar comment in the Colibri version 3.0 manual.) Has anyone with GPS units mounted on carbon panels encountered...

I'm sanding on my LS-4A wings and was wondering several things. Does properly placed ZZ Tape noticeably reduce the high speed drag of an LS-4A? Probably does. Does anyone know the proper location of ZZ Tape on the wings? If it is in the right spot and works, I'll sand around it. If it is not in...

As the header says I need someone in the area of the Limoges Bellegarde gliding club, or someone willing to travel there. I am looking at purchasing a glider from near there and I need someone to do a peliminary walkround or an certified engineer to do a full inspection and report and if...

Does everbody teach soaring the same way? If so, excuse me while I step outside and scream. I've had 24 flights with 4 different instructors at two different schools. (I switched schools quickly after realizing that there are some places where humans were not meant to be in August) ...

Thanks Gary! John Bojack

Hi all, I am cleaning a fiberglas fuselage of mice infested residue and smell in the cockpit area only. The smell is now reduced but like to eliminate it all together. Any suggestion would be welcomed. Regards Udo

Hi folks, In order to get the best performance from the gliders we fly we need the C of G near the aft limit. How much difference does this actually make? Or is it just perception ? For example, If I add 60kgs of ballast to my Discus,

Perhaps someone out in r.a.s land may be able to point me in the direction of a commercial piece of equipment which would perform the following task. I would like to be able to charge up a 12 volt (nominal) gell cell battery and then plug it into a piece of equipment to check its total...

I was taught during wave training that all sailplanes, properly trimmed, when you let go of the controls, will seek a gentle banked circle to one direction and maintain that attitude, even in light turbulence. There must be great variation from one a/c to the next with varied CG and...

I had a chance to fly a 737 sim with the folks from microsoft flight simulator dev group. I asked them why the sim has roll stability (if the plane is left in a bank, it magically rolls straight and level over time). They mentioned it made it easier for those playing the GAME (emphasizing the...

I have some mini-DV footage of a 2-33 doing a perfect 180 ground loop that I would like to transfer to MPG. Then we can put it up on our website. Does anyone have the equipment to do this (from mini DV, Hi-8, SVHS, or VHS)? I'd happily send you the tape :-)

Hi all, to day I checked, what I thought was the rear exhaust vent of the ASW24. I tried, after removing the rudder, insert a thin wire past the tail wheel fender. I could not get this thin flexible wire through. I inserted a long vacuum hose from the cockpit side, to the very end of the tail and...
