Record height for a winch launch? by
Nick Kennedy[_3_]
New people always ask about release altitudes. The more relevant question is the rate of launches. We learn to fly and gain proficiency through repetition, we gain altitude in thermals. Ever ask the guy doing pattern work in a 172 how high he got?
For most licensed pilots I think the release...

PW-5 longitudinal pitch oscillation by
[email protected]
Am considering buying a PW-5 as my first single-seater for a variety of reasons, but the one aspect I don't like is that in rough air the tail is easily pitched up in flight from unexpected gusts once I'm off tow. This one's been weighed & balanced recently and its CG is perfectly centered within...

We're making a new winch drum. The flanges on our drum bent out a little when moving from steel to Spectra line.
I'd like to know the dimensions and structure of any drums/flanges that have failed, or shown signs of failing, and with what length and type of line. Please pass this on to anyone...

Cambridge GPS-NAV language by
Paul Remde
Hi,
I don't believe you can switch languages without sending it back to the
factory. The reason I think that is true is that they sell several versions
of the GPS-NAV display. One in English, one in German, one in Italian, etc.
However, I've never gone through that process, so I'm not...

Ximango - fuel selection problem by
Colin Hamilton
Thanks to all who replied either in ras or by email.
No 'mechanical or electrical' intervention happened
before this problem manifested itself, so I think we're
left with looking at a fuel line blockage somewhere
that results in such a degree of negative pressure
that fuel is still drawn from the...
