Just became aware of this neat little device in the most recent soaring magazine. A friend of mined saw the ad and called to ask if I had ever heard of it. I replied, no I had not.

I have just posted up to Al's Gliderforum a german language copy of an overhaul manual for the Solo 2350 2-stroke engine as used in all of Schempp-Hirth's sustainer models, as well as the Ventus CM and the new LS-8t sustainer model.

Due to the unfortunate combination of a pre-teenage driver and a glider club golf cart, my Ventus C has a nasty ding in the outer left aileron. Schempp-Hirth says the ship is too old (1987) for them to have spare parts. Does anyone have a left outer aileron for a Ventus C? Remember, the Ventus...
