For those who want to use the Cambridge DOS program to enable the GPS-NAV's ability to alert entry into a Restricted Area (e.g. Class B), DosBox (which is loaded by the front-end "D-Fend Reloaded") will do so on a Windows 8.1 64-bit system as follows: Install Serial Card (USB-Serial adapters may...

I am trying to create a Restricted Area Navpoint with an "R" Attribute, ceiling altitude, and radius so my GPS-NAV can alert me if I invade that space.. The old MS-DOS software allowed creation of such a Navpoint but the subsequent Aero Explorer does not. The .dat file structure appears to be: ID...

Earlier in the year I had a close call, the Flarm was going off with multiple targets most of which I could visually identify. One I did not see, we both had to turn sharply left to avoid a straight on collision. Apparently Flarm calculates the potential collision taking into account all...

Rather than post my annual Oshkosh report directly to the news group I decided to place it on my Apis web site. Not to get you to look at the site but because there are pictures and hyperlinks this year and my limited time and computer skills allow me to use this method without problem. go to...

The report of my visit to two east coast glider clubs in now on the Apis web site. www.apisgliders.com I had two very nice visits. Robert Mudd Apis Sailplanes Inc.

A short report about the Apis visit to the Chicago area is on the web site now. www.apisgliders.com This weekend I'll be at the Philadelphia Glider Council on Saturday, 6 Sept. and the Mid Atlantic Soaring Association at Frederick, MD on Sunday the 7th. Hope to see some of you there. Robert Mudd

I will have my kit built Apis 13meter glider on display at Oshkosh. It will be on the flight line with all the other homebuilts. I know a lot of readers of this newsgroup visit Oshkosh because I meet them at the SSA booth. So if you wondered what this neat little glider looks like in the flesh,...

Looking for a LEFT wings for a Schweizer SGS 1-34

I realize that the first weekend of June is a little late to take your first glider flights of the year. Yeah, I missed some great days in May. Regardless, had two wonderful flights, but can't get my laptop to connect to the 302. Using the same set up as last year (Dell Latitude with Windows XP)...

So the other day, I pull my fuselage out of the trailer and the gear free falls out of the well. Turns out, the 400N strut pulled itself out of the fitting on the end. I have a new strut, but trying to figure out how to install it. I have adjusted the turn buckle so that there about an 1/2"...

I am on the Board of Directors for the Sunflower Soaring Foundation. We are a 501c3 qualified organization that owns/operates the Sunflower Gliderport in Kansas. We are currently looking at the rates charged for storing assembled gliders in community hangars and for glider trailers stored on the...

I have a flight that qualifies for numerous Oregon state free distance records, and declared records if my declaration is valid. I'm trying to figure out if my electronic declaration is valid. I did not do a paper declaration. Please no comments about paper declarations in this post please. I...

Unfair to do this on a forum perhaps but I think it's that bad. Wondering if anyone else with an older SH model is feeling the same. I have not been able to get parts for my glider. I will not go into exactly what I have and have not done to make it happen because I think I've done more than what...

I'm located in the western US and probably keeping my V1 long term and am (also) looking for 15m winglets any type (Maughmer preferred), 16.6 tips, 15m wing tips with no winglets (helps in doing the winglet mod?), and yes the real unobtanium... 16.6 tips with winglets! And I'll be looking for...

Amateur refinisher looking to take on some work for pay. 15 meter fuselage and stabilizer would be good, or I could do a set of wings. Could possibly do an entire glider, but might not be able to guarantee that completed by summer so it might be best to start with a partial project. Price would...
