I stopped by Minden yesterday with a list of things to do to get my soaring season started and had the pleasure of stumbling into the resurrected Minden wave camp - now hosted by Soaring NV. I have to say it was one of the better organized and prepared soaring events I've attended in some time....

If you're interested, I posted some notes on my factory visit: http://www.nadler.com/Antares/Lange_Visit_20090410.html From Zweibruecken, Best Regards, Dave "YO electric" PS: I've offered our editor to do a "Soaring" article on the Aero show as well.

Is there a place in the Mid-Atlantic US where one can launch a glider by simply rolling down a steep hill into the wind the way Mike Sandlin launches his BUG and GOAT? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-noBy7oHCG0

Anybody have a recommendation for a small thin digital camera with decent quality that might be suitable for taping to a winglet for inflight down-the-wing shots, with a connection for an rf remote? Have not been able to find a small camera with remote option. Thanks...

Hi, I half-heartedly searched the SeeYou forum for this, so apoligies if I missed it. I have an EW Microrecorder with the SD Card. Recorder stays in the glider and is used as a "dumb" backup (so it's not connected to a PDA or other input device). SD card comes home with me. Question: Is...

Looking for a recommendation for a freight handling company or other intermediary who can help with the delivery a glider in its trailer at the Port of Houston. It will be in a container off a ship in the usual way, but I'm getting conflicting stories about how best to pick it up. Post 9/11...

We had a good (but not easy) first day of wave camp in Minden. Gordo called around 8:00 to say "surf's up!" and he was right. He launched first with one of the wave camp participants and puttered around at about 16,000' between here and Reno for an hour and a half. We opened the wave window but...

Is it true a PPL tow pilot needs to fly and log an endorsement with a current and qualified tow pilot every 12 months (three flights) to be current? I've read 61.69 and that's what it seems to say.

Mark Hawkins has made a number of upgrades to the SPOT tracking program used at the Seniors contest, and it will be at Perry to provide real-time tracking of SPOT-equipped gliders. If you have already registered your SPOT with Mark, then you are all set. If not, then you can do so by setting up a...

Anybody know where I can get a decent watch to time my flights? Or a good pair of shoes to push my glider to the runway?

does anybody have an LS3 with the flap detent mod?

No doubt many wonderful things will be said about Charlie Spratt after he's gone. But funerals are for the living. If you have something you'd like to say, whether a nostalgic memory, a tribute or just "good bye, old friend," don't wait until the funeral or a memorial Web page. We don't always get...
