Friday,07-Aug-2020 Matt Herron was piloting LAK-17B FES Mini Glider, which took off from Lampson Field near Lakeport at about 2 p.m. en route to Mendocino County, the Lake County Sheriff’s Office said. That's all I...

Long time ago I landed glider with broken rudder. Rudder cable broke during stopping spin rotation in aerobatic flight on 3000 feet, decided not to bail out to see if flying and landing is possible and to save the glider. Flying with "hardover rudder" (full deflection) was interesting experience....

Recently, our club's Blanik L23 was damaged during a take off incident in which a wing struck the ground with sufficient force to crease the wing slightly at the aileron juncture. I understand that the wing is designed to fail at this point so that the major portion of the structure will survive...

I am entering into a leaseback arrangement a member of my glider club for the use of my glider. We have agreed to terms and now need some sort of contract. Do any of you have a template for such an agreement or can you point me to where I might find one?

Just thought I would ask if anyone has a full set of Nimbus 2 covers they would be willing to sell or if no longer needed. I'm just exhausting the option of purchasing used covers before I fully commit to buying a new set of covers. Thanks, Aaron Thomson N71TT Nimbus 2B S/N 136

Just wondering if anyone in no longer flying on their Condor soaring setup and would like to sell it. I am looking to spend the winter getting familiar with my Ouide and figured why not play around with Condor. Thanks, Aaron Thomson N71TT Nimbus 2b

Guys/gals, Anyone have or know if any Stinson 108’s with a tow release? Looking to buy a Stinson 108-3 with a 220hp engine and wouldn’t mind having a back up towplane if our Pawnee is down for any reason other than scheduled maintenance. Thanks, fly safe! Aaron Thomson Nimbus 2B

Got an email from Judy today, my Silver Badge is in the mail! yippee, only 2 years worth of goofed up barographs and missed opportunities to get it too. I should write a book "Silver Badge...Made Hard!" On to the gold I suppose. Tony

After my polar testing flight yesterday I landed in the cut soybean field behind matt michaels house. Got a cool video of the approach and landing, plus a great shot of the side of my face :) Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IjZZTsgUAI

I flew yesterday. Perfectly calm conditions. a 5000 foot tow followed by several 1 minute runs at varying airspeeds from 35 to 75 mph. downloading the video now, hopefully the numbers work out. more to come.

I was reviewing some contest flights from 2008 and it occurred to me that there hadn't been a thorough review of people's experience with the new "start anywhere" rule - which measures distance on the first leg from a start from anywhere along the boundries of the start cylinder. I general I...

I've been having radio transmission problems on my Dittel FGS-2T off and on since I put it in. Some people say I'm over-modulate, some say I'm under-modulated. I've got a factory boom mike and a factory wiring harness. I finally got one of those MFJ-259B SWR analyzers to see if it's an antenna...

I stopped by Minden yesterday with a list of things to do to get my soaring season started and had the pleasure of stumbling into the resurrected Minden wave camp - now hosted by Soaring NV. I have to say it was one of the better organized and prepared soaring events I've attended in some time....
