ASW 20 SPIN CHARACTERISTICS by
Ventus B
I have been considering buying an ASW20, ASW20B, or ASW20C. I knew
they were champions in their day and still have a lot of admirers.
However a few folks from my club say they have some nasty spin
characteristics. Specifically, that they have a tendancy to not only
immediately spin when stalled,...

Crunch Alert (USA) - hugely serious but (apparently) non-fatal by
BobW
Having once 'felt the need' myself, this one undoubtedly has a compelling
story; it will definitely make its way into the NTSB database.
Thank goodness the pilot is (reportedly) OK. SSA member; diamond badge; 2-time
3rd place finisher in Region 9 Regional.
If it happens it must be possible....

Ventus C being parted-out by
[email protected]
My Ventus C didn't survive the last landing, the insurance company totaled it and I have the remains. I may have been the only bidder as I was able to acquire it as a salvage sale for a ridiculously low price. So, if anyone wants to offer a reasonable for the entire plane, let me know - I'll be...

Cross Country the main focus of soaring? by
mat Redsell
I have been very concerned about our club, which discourages cross country
in club gliders. My thought is that purpose of soaring is cross country and
if one just concentrates on flying above the airport then ones member ship
tends to end when you have your license.
We have many airports withing a...

How to buy a US registered glider by
Matt Herron Jr.
I am looking for some advice on the forms and process I need to go
through, to buy a glider registered in the US. From what I can tell,
I need a Bill of Sale (form 8050-2) and an Aircraft Registration
Application (form 8050-1). It appears that the latter form is only
available from the local FSDO...

Beginner questions about buying a sailplane... by
vic20owner
No, I am not planning to buy anything for at least a year ... but I
have often wondered what other "hidden" expenses or obstacles there
are associated with buying a used glider.
I regularly see older planes in the $10K USD range (which is well
within my price range). BUT, for future reference,...

Dittel ATR720B Manual by
Cats
Hi
I'm looking for a scan of a manual for a Dittel 720B radio. I can
find manuals online for the A & C versions which are considerably
different, and the few previous enquiries seem to have hit dead ends -
but someone, somewhere must have one!
I'm in the UK.

I wish I'd never got into this... by
Kevin Neave
The original question stated a glider doing 100kts
with/without 100kgs of ballast.
Ignoring the stalling speed for the moment, Does anyone
out there think the pull-up takes more than 4 or 5
seconds?
Does anyone out there think that the sink rate of the
unballasted glider at 100kts is more than...

Compass Correction Card by
glider[_2_]
Just for fun......
A long time ago, I was told that a compass correction card is
required.
I was also told it didn't have to be filled out.
That may not be a good idea.
No need to upset our FAA friends.

Replacement for DAFIF Airspace Data by
2KA
All,
I've just embarked on a project to extract US (CONUS) airspace data
from the FAA National Airspace System Resource files and process it
into more accessible formats (such as OpenAir and Tim Newport-Peace).
This is a little more complicated than it sounds, because the NASR
uses ESRI shapefile...
