It seems to be an easy way to add Flarm without the hassle of rewiring and adding yet another box to the panel. Any experiences and pros/cons out there? Reliability? Compatibility with...

Dear RAS'ers: This is a warning. Lately, there has been a bitter personal feud between a small handful of persons in the management of the Danish Soaring Society (DSvU), and a few fellow pilots. It seems that no one is able to explain exactly what they are arguing about, but this has not...

OK, here we go, just to exite trolls, believers, non-believers, math fereaks, the lot: Off course wet pullups go higher. In the end, a pullup is conversion from kinetic energy (speed) to potential energy (altitude). Soaring is all about trading one of these for the other. Picture two identical...
