Interesting article about Duke engineers applying their passive,
engineered material light/sound cloaking techniques to water,
theoretically (substantially) reducing the amount of drag generated by
a boat's hull by 'tricking' the surrounding water into standing...

This July, 11-17, there will be a NASA sponsored green flight
challenge involving alternative fueled motorgliders with a
$1.65million prize at the Sonoma Co airport in Sonoma, CA. It might be

Getting Raptured This Saturday? by
sisu1a
I won't be, so can you please leave me as custodian/guardian of your
glider? It would really help me enjoy the last 5 months of
civilization, and from the post-rapture weather predictions I've read
it sounds like the thermals will be GREAT! I'd really like to get the
paperwork settled before...

Uninstalling SeeYou (desktop) by
sisu1a
My next stupid question... how do I remove all elements of SeeYou from
my notebook? I've gone into the control panel and removed the program.
Even went into my disk and removed it there, then rebooted. I've
looked up the help log on the subject and it wasn't particularly
helpful (can't find SeeYou...

SYM Copy? by
sisu1a
Hi All,
I think my installation of SYM I'm using on my 310 is corrupted. My
update privileges ended as of March of this year, so I can't just
download a new one from Naviter. Does anyone have an archived copy of
the SYM download from last March or around thereabouts?
TIA,

It has been about ~2 years since the last RAS article on this radio. At that time things were very positive.
Now that time has elapsed some birthing pains may had become apparent. This is similar to the early Microaires which definitely had some pains during the early days - but which seems to...
