Hinge gap tape by
Grider Pirate
I'm looking for suggestions for taping the hinge side gap of a Grob. I
typically un-tape for the annual inspection of condition, clean, then
re-tape. There is very little movement at the hinge. In the past, I

SeeYou 4.01 update? by
JS
You may want to delay installing this update.
Seems that the link for the update 4.01 you will be advised of at
startup actually links to the version 3.95 installer. The software
then becomes an unregistered version of 3.x.
Paul Remde has already contacted Naviter, but it's after business
hours...

ContestID67[_2_]

Do you actually tow with your hand on the release? What happens at
100 feet when you hit a good bump and accidentally release?
I have had exactly one PTT (premature termination of tow) at about 3
feet AGL when I had my hand on the...

SeeYou task leg distance calculation question by
Tuno
I have this question posted on the Naviter forum, but I thought I'd
troll here for any bored SeeYou fans. (ZL?)
SeeYou (3.9x and now 4.00) is calculating the length of the final leg
in my TAT from the point of the last turn to the center of the finish
circle. Since I have "Reduce leg distance"...

Redirection by
Dan Marotta
Killing time before breakfast and heading to the airport and have a
basic computer question.
It seems that, with this site, clicking on a link opens a new tab with
a redirection notice. It's annoying to have to stop what I'm doing,

Being new to google...

Need Input On Rudder Lock by
[email protected]
I'm trying to build an inexpensive yet effective rudder lock for an
assembled GROB 103 or TWIN ASTIR. Have tried two or three approaches
but not happy with any thus far. Needs to be rugged, lightweight, and
user friendly (think club environment). Any ideas?

XcSoar and Cambridge by
Fred Blair[_2_]
With the correct cable can XcSoar send a new task to my Model 20
Cambridge. Or, does XcSoar just receive information from the Model 20

Thanks,
