I have multiple igc files that I would like to display overlaid on a Google Map or similar. I'd like to have the flights shown on map that shows state boundaries, major cities, etc. and not the clutter of terrain elevation or sectional charts which make it difficult to really see where the flight...

I have a Ventus C and only have the 17.6m tips, and was wondering if there is anyone out there that has the original 15m winglets that they would be willing to part with. From what I understand, Ventus A B and C had the same.

There is a filter on the nose mounted pitot tube as well as on the static tube from the tail boom. There was no filter/gust filter on the TE tube, nor on the four nose mounted...

Have been playing with Topmeteo for the US and so far find it very professional. Does anyone know if there is a way to see thermal updraft velocity predictions in Topmeteo. Have not been able to find anything like Dr. Jack has for this parameter in Topmeteo.

My Strong parachute is now 30 years old, and each time I get it repacked I point this out to the packer, and ask if the packer has any reservations about it. So far, none has. My original parachute manual has no mention of any life limit, although I believe the Strong company now recommends 15...

Mulling over a wave flight from last October and realized that I'd gotten it into my head (perhaps erroneously) that the up (lift) side of rotor is usually closer to the upwind ridge than the down side (sink) of the rotor. So for example, if I persist in heading closer towards the slope/ridge...

Does anyone un-secure their canopy lanyard prior to take off? Just wondering if the lanyard would break during a canopy ejection or if the lanyard would cause the canopy to whirl about and pop the pilot in the head. Mine and others I've seen have a clip on at least one end.
