12 volt 7amp/h versus10amp/h ?? by Udo Rumpf
If a 7 amp/h battery shows 12.00 volts exactly, after 5 hours with a 5 Watt resistor, what voltage should a 10 amp/h battery show? Both batteries are of the same type and starting from the same voltage with surface charge removed. Udo

12 Volt DC input Battery Charger by Michael I Green
My dual input ( 12 VDC & 115 VAC) battery charger died on me last summer. Does anyone know of a replacement? I would be satisfied with just a 12 VDC input for a 12V 7-10 Ah Powersonic Battery. Mike Green _____ | `-----------( )-----------'

1201 & Tow Planes by Jamie Shore
The Soaring Club of Houston and the Houston TRACON have recently agreed to allow tow planes to squawk 1201 during towing operations. The ATC sector manager agrees that it is a good idea and it is worth trying for a couple of months. After the trial period, our club and TRACON will talk to review...

1202 Transponder Squawk Code - In a Tow Plane? by OHM Ω http://aviation.derosaweb.net
Just wondering about something. Those of us with transponders in our gliders squawk 1202. Hurrah for our unique code. As I understand it other VFR aircraft with transponders typically squawk 1200. I would assume that at many gliderports few of the gliders have a transponder due to the cost...

121.5 & Airliners by Nolaminar
The only time that 121.5 is monitored is over the ocean or very remote areas. While I can't speak for ALL Carriers, I am pretty sure that none listen in on 121.5 while over the continental US. Bob Gaines Retired Delta

I currently charge the (hard to remove) batteries in my ASH-26E with a solar panel and charger installed on/in my trailer. During a contest, the plane may not spend much time in the trailer during daylight hours, but it does spend most nights in there. The solution would be to use the solar panel...

13 meter class by Senna Van den Bosch
I'd like to know what your opinions are on gliders with 13/13.5 meter span. I would personally be really interested in lighter/smaller gliders with good performance. What are prices on some? I found the GP 11 to be starting at € 69k without VAT.

13.5 Meter class by Gerry Simpson
Is there any movement or momentum to have a 13.5 meter class in the U.S. or will they be simply confined to the Sports Class for competition.

14 CFR Part 23 re-write by jp
Any opinions on the FAA'S re-write of 14 CFR part 23, doing away with the "Utility", "Aerobatic" and "Commuter" categories - to be replaced with "performance-based" definitions?
