CAI 302 needle fell off by
Nelson Howe
So the needle fell off my 302 yesterday. Noticed it on the ground, but the landing wasn't that firm.
Anyway, I thought I could get by short term without it, as I use it to feed the Clearnav, and have a Butterfly as well. But a very wise man suggested that the 302 hunts for the needle position on...

Chris Snyder
We just noticed some play on our club L-23. It was detected in the stick while on tow with a forward CG. Does anyone have experience with a horizontal stab being loose on an L-23? The elevator auto-hookups have large pins, but it seems like there's no way to really tighten...

Emergencies on aerotow by
[email protected]
You cannot teach safety in paragraph-long sound bites.
Unlike a high percentage of glider pilots, if you want to be a safe pilot, you need to educate yourself.
How many launching emergencies are there? All pilots automatically think of rope breaks. Believe it or not, 41 emergencies are listed,...

Podcasts? by
Bullwinkle
There was a flurry of posts in the couple of weeks prior to the Convention
about getting podcasts of sessions using cell phones.
Can I assume by the silence since then that this did not come to fruition?
Thanks,

Libelle Wings by
Steve Leonard
'If the comment that 'any 201 can be retrofitted with
a B stamp' is really true...'
I think that is implying that any 201 can have the
ballast system added, and the flight manual revised
to show the higher gross weight permitted with water
ballast. My machine is having troubles openning...
