I posted 4 flights to OLC last night and one of them, the longest, will not post at all. Not just no score, but won't send a confirmation email or show up on the list. I tried changing the name of the file, but no luck there either. Can anybody help me? It's only 270 points or so, but I'm...

Jim McCann was a hell of a great guy and pilot. We spent many happy hours together on the Drive Across America (otherwise known as Return to Kitty Hawk), including a few hours flying together in his Ximango from Las Vegas to Phoenix. Sadly last time we spoke was a few months back, and he was...

Hello, I am expected to solo very soon and i would love to have an onboard view of the event. If anyone is familiar with the cockpit of the L23 (or not) i would love your insight on the best place to mount the camera where it wont obstruct my view. Thanks

Hi, The ASW 19 in Condor Plane Pack 2 has a bug. One of the instruments does not appear on the instrument panel. The good news is that a fix has been provided and it is easy to install. The bad news is that it must be applied manually after installing Plane Pack...

Hello, if you have or used to have a 302, did it ever quit receiving GPS satellites? My 302 will not receive and does not display any satellite bars on the home screen. I have tried a different antenna and still no joy. I'm thinking it is a send to the factory problem. Does anyone have comments or...

Evan Ludeman (T8) took this video of me assembling my Ventus 2bx at Wurtsboro last week, using my el-cheapo single-rig system. The video has not been edited in any way, and assembly that morning was actually a little slower than usual ;-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcRipsiPgdk TA

Any general recommendations for type of glue to use when attaching (or reattaching, in this case) a wingtip wheel? Would like it to hold during normal ops, but not require a power tools to remove at some future date. Thanks in advance. -- RWW

I am delivering a glider to Raleigh Durham, NC on Wednesday, July 20th. I will have an empty tow ball back to Dallas/Tulsa/OKC. Call me if you need a glider relocated. Randy Teel Cell: 918-289-3310

Anyone have an address in the Chicago area to obtain aviation grade oxygen? I have a friend who is having a heck of a time finding it. You would think that some of the smaller airports handling executive jets would have it. Thanks, John

There's an article today in EAA's e-Hotline about studies and testing of infinite glider flights. The glider is equipped with an autopilot and wind sensors. Here's a link to the...

We are well aware that we have stressed the patience of our fellow pilots with repeated delays and would like to apologize for this. Here's the status as of Monday 16-May-2011. First, the good news. The portable PowerFLARM is shipping to GA pilots in Europe, with close to 500 already delivered,...

Our LX 5000 is set up for electronic compensation. Checked and double checked. Right now, we are running at 250% compensation, in an effort to get some realistic output. This is not working accurately. Our TE Winter vario is working well but slower, as expected. Any insights/help would be...

Hi, After the success of my RASP iPhone/iPad application, I decided to write a new one that is hopefully as useful. This time the app will make it very easy to check out the results of the ongoing competitions on Soaring Spot (www.soaringspot.com). The name of the app is not Soaring Spot but...

Flight instructors in the area will receive a mailing. Additional FIRC events are being considered for...

Thanks for your input Max. I am concerned by some issues pilots here have had with Cambridge 302 failures. I am keen to support Borgelt (as a local product) if the vario will do what I need. I have heard a lot of positive feedback on his vario performance and product support. On the other hand,...

It appears the last weekend was pretty deadly for gliding in the west. We had a gas-powered Tarus go in north of Durango, killing its pilot, and reading other reports, there was reported a 2-32 somewhere else in Colorado involved in a fatal during a check ride, and a guy reported to be flying...
