Becker likes to use slide locks for the db25 connector on the back of the radio. The ar3201 has a circular pin slide lock - the ar4201 a different locking "hook" hardware set. Does anyone have a source for such hardware? I've looked in mouser and other online catalogs, but all I find are the...

I had exact same problem. I ‘tried’ on many gliders (I am 180). In szd-55 I could not close the canopy. I fit comfortably in dg-300 (which I ended up buying) and I fit less comfortably in LS-4. Aside from the size dg-300 is a dream... S

I am working out a deal with my insurance to buy back the oxygen system and instruments from my HP-14 that was damaged in my bailout last year. Their plan is to scrap the rest of the ship unless someone wants it (which I hate to see, but don't have the time/spousal approval to fix) The ship is...

Anyone aware of a damaged Krosno KR-03A sailplane? Need a part from the left wing.

If anyone has used a Mountain High kevlar O2 bottle in an ASG-29? If so, what size bottle and were you happy. Did you have to have a spacer made so the bottle would fit?

Can anyone help please with a contact e-mail ID for any member of the development team who built this excellent product. None of the Stransim site e-mail links work - mail is always "administratively rejected" - whatever that means. Many thanks DJR

Hello All, Been off RAS for awhile dealing with work stuff (instead of glider-flying, darnit). Now that we're entering the buying/selling season I am cranking up my efforts to acquire an ASW-27. If you know of a good bird that's not being flown, please let me know! If you have a '27 and need...

There doesn't seem to be much at the moment on the SSA contest page for the 15m Nats at Hobbs; can someone point me at accommodation/camping info for this site? TIA, Frank (TA)
