Ventus Panel upgrade by
Fish
Hi,
Can anyone tell me if a Ventus 2C panel will fit in a Ventus C tilt
panel installation with little or no modification?
Also, if someone has a DXF, CAD, DWG file whatever, of either of these
I'd be very greatful for a copy.
Cheers

Ventus rigging advice, please? by
John McLaughlin
I've recently started flying a Ventus2. I can't rig the thing without a lot
of
struggle. The trouble is, there's a cover above the spars and you can't see
anything once the first wing is in.
I struggle to get the second wing to fit, never knowing whether it's a bit
too
high or a bit too low....

Ventus Rudder Cables by
[email protected]
Recently acquired a Ventus Bt that may need the rudder cables replaced. Are the cables available from the dealer or factory? Or can they be made up by an AI/AP?
Are there tricks for doing the replacement?

Stuart Venters
As part of annual, I just found this newish TN regarding corrosion in
the flaperon inside the wing linkage. (No corresponding AD.)
I looked inside with a USB camera and saw some minor stuff. Definitely

Ventus/Discus proposed AD for elevator? by
Stewart Kissel
Ran into my friendly A+P, AI today. While checking
for current/proposed AD's for my upcoming annual, he
said he saw a proposed AD for mass ballast from Schemp-Hirth.
I have not heard of this, and will start googling as
soon as I post to ras.

VentusB retro Tailtank information by

Does anyone know if this was a 'standard' retrofit?
The rubber bellows in my tank is shot...and I have
no idea where to find a replacement. My ship has no
record when the tank was added, the install appears
to be quite clean. The bellows has a 90 degree turn
in it from the tank to the dump valve....

Verifying a club members pilot certificate and other paperwork by
John Gilbert[_2_]
A quick question or four:
Does you club verify that a member has a license, a valid BFR, and/or
any other certification documents? Do you record the actual numbers,
photocopy, or just verify?
Is it different if that member is just towing with their private ship,
as opposed to flying a club...
