Need GPS flight logs in NMEA format... by
[email protected]
....playing with some flight eval software, don't want IGC files. If
you have flights logged with a generic GPS (not a certified IGC

New ASK-21 movie by
Tlewis95
Hi
My dad/CFIG, Curt Lewis, took some video as I was flying Windy City Soaring
Association's ASK-21 at Hinckley, IL. I edited it and added some Cheap Trick
music on to it and it turned out quite nice in my opinion.

Just soloed on my 14th b-day! by
Tlewis95
I just soloed a Schweizer 2-33 on my 14th birthday! It was the very last day of
operations for the Windy City Soaring Association (11/28/04) and I was the last
flight of the season. I was amazed how much nicer the 2-33 seemed to fly solo
(or maybe it was just me).
A special thank you goes out...

Trailer tongue failure by
[email protected]
A little afterthought concerning trailer tongue failures. I have a
3/4 ton GMC pickup with a factory installed hitch. Last year I towed
my glider 700 miles to do some repairs. When I got to my destination
and went to unhitch the trailer I found the trailer tongue a few
inches from the ground. ...

Soaring in Slovenia by

We're planning a trip this summer to Slovenia, and I would like to find a club or commercial glider port where I could spend 2-3 days soaring. I have a glider rating in the U.S. and have flown a couple times in Germany at DASSU (Great place, by the way!). Based on my experience in Germany, I assume...

Common speaker for vario and radio by
toad
Electronics guru's,
Can I use 1 speaker for both by radio (Becker 3201) and vario (LX160).
Both call for a 4ohm speaker.
Would connecting both to one speaker still work ?
Would it be too quiet ?
Any chance for damage to the radio or vario ?
Thanks

Becker 3201 needed by
toad
Folks,
Does anyone have a Becker 3201 radio that I could use for 1 week at the
Mifflin contest ? Mine just went belly up (I can't transmit) and I
would rather not use a handheld for the contest.
If anybody has a working 3201 for sale, I would consider a purchase.

My glider has several cockpit placards that are in pretty sad shape.
I would like to get new placards printed with white letters on black
background. On a durable (maybe vinyl) sticky backed sheet.
Does anybody know of a source for such printing ?
Or have an alternate that they suggest ? I...

Rudder waggle by
toad
Since the rudder waggle signal was brought up in another thread, I
have a few thoughts and would like to get other opinions. I am a
glider and tow pilot for my club, so I have thought these through from
both ends.
To start with, if the tow plane gives you a wave off signal, THERE IS
TIME TO...
