Soaring Schools by
John Foster
Is there a general consensus on which schools are regarded as the "best" for glider training? I realize this is difficult to compare, as there are lots of good instructors all over the place, but if someone were interested in taking a block of time off and going somewhere to learn how to fly...

Spin recovery vs tail design by
Ron Ogden

4-blade Pawnee Performance? by
noel.wade
Can anyone out there with experience behind both 2-bladed and 4-bladed
Pawnees give me an idea of what the performance losses are?
My club has debated this off and on, but I was recently at a field

S-H safety harness (V2C) by

An annoying property of my Ventus 2C is that the safety harness does
not hold me into the seat. When encountering turbulance my upper torso
