Sunday, 17 MAY 09:
Rainy weather today, so no task was flown. Some couldn't even get in
a full 18 holes of golf due to the rain. What kind of weather will
Monday bring?
Hurry up and wait!

Two ways to become a better flier by
Brian[_1_]
I just read the artical below in an old AMA magazine. It wouldn't take

Opening weekend for the Cherokee by
Tony Condon[_2_]
I've been slow to get airborne this year. I moved to Wichita in Feb. and
the glider came down at the end of March. I managed to break the canopy
while doing the annual so first thing was to put new polycarbonate (Lexan)
on the frame. That turned out well, then I decided it was time for a...

New camera for cockpit photography by
5Z
I just made my first flight with the new Panasonic DMC-ZS3 camera and
it's quite impressive. The lens does an effective 25 - 300mm zoom, so
not only can you get good pilot perspective shots, but air to air
photography is also possible without the need to fly dangerously close
to the other ship. ...

with the added dimension of actual precipitation. Rain...

Grob oxygen bracket by
toad
Does anyone use an O2 cylinder mounted in the hatchback area of a
102 ?
I have studs glassed in, but have never seen an example of a bracket
and would
like to mount an O2 bottle there.
If you have this or have seen it, please post a description or better
yet, post
a photo.

If the forecast is correct, this weekend may be one of the best of the

Sunday might be as good as July 5, 2007.
