Hallo, Anybody versed in german regulations? Is there an official requirement - "aircraft radio license", to have a radio in a german registered glider? Not a "operator permit" but some oficial permit to have a radio installed.... Thanks. Andy

Would anybody have a suggestion what kind of a switch to use for flap handle activated Climb/Cruise switching of CAI 302? Ventus C suggestions are appreciated! Thanks. Andy

Is external "event marker" switch on 302 a "momentary on" type? Can the mode/screen pushbutton on 302 be used as an event marker? Thanks. Andy

Just got a 302 and playing with it at home (another few weeks till soaring weather). My intended glider setup is 302 and ipaq with WinPilot (302 is an upgrade of my old system of Borgelt B50, Volkslogger and WinPilot on ipaq). I've hooked up an ipaq and connected with 302 via Cambridge IQ255...

So here's a different idea: What if, in instances where we are using a 1 mile cylinder for the finish, instead of putting in a hard deck of 500', we make it so the scoring program can calculate TOTAL ENERGY for each glider at the one mile point (this should be relatively easy to do). The idea...

FROM 11 MONTHS AGO: Only point was that one would need to know your predictions for what to do for, say, the past 10-20 years to know if your 2005 prediction was good or just lucky. Stock newsletter writers have used 'survivor bias' in market forecasting for years - trumpet your...

Anyone out there have good plans for the factory-recommended ballast tank ventilation system? I've heard of (but haven't seen) designs that include humidity sensors so they know automatically when to turn off. Thanks! 9B

I've got my ASW-27B in the shop to have some cosmetic work done - building up the tip skids and fixing some minor scrapes. At the same time I'm wondering if a profiling job is in order as I can now see spar and rib dimples top and bottom all along both wings. The shop tells me that it's going to...

Rudy still lives in southern Connecticut and is now in his 90's. I believe he's recently stopped flying due to his eyesight. A great, unassuming man with many fantastic flying stories. 9B
