If you have an early version of the Schweizer 1-26, we have discovered an open cockpit modification we happen to have in stock. Simply remove the full, enclosed canopy and slip this one on. It has a windshield but the rest is open. Really a lot of fun! (814) 355 2483 Knauff & Grove Soaring...

....playing with some flight eval software, don't want IGC files. If you have flights logged with a generic GPS (not a certified IGC logger) please let me know. They should be complete from takeoff to landing. Thanks, Tom

I just soloed a Schweizer 2-33 on my 14th birthday! It was the very last day of operations for the Windy City Soaring Association (11/28/04) and I was the last flight of the season. I was amazed how much nicer the 2-33 seemed to fly solo (or maybe it was just me). A special thank you goes out...

Hi My dad/CFIG, Curt Lewis, took some video as I was flying Windy City Soaring Association's ASK-21 at Hinckley, IL. I edited it and added some Cheap Trick music on to it and it turned out quite nice in my opinion. http://www.windycitysoaring.com/ASK21%20Flight%20Lesson1.wmv Trace Lewis

After searching the powerflarm website, and searching posts here, I am unable to figure out when the data logger function of the flarm is projected to be approved. Anyone know? Thanks, Discus TMA.

A little afterthought concerning trailer tongue failures. I have a 3/4 ton GMC pickup with a factory installed hitch. Last year I towed my glider 700 miles to do some repairs. When I got to my destination and went to unhitch the trailer I found the trailer tongue a few inches from the ground. ...

Hello, I'm thinking of making a small and short motorhome to tow my DG800b trailer. Can anyone share positive and negative experience in this. Today I use a 2 door Montero, which is fantastic. Tks, Thomas DG800b

We're planning a trip this summer to Slovenia, and I would like to find a club or commercial glider port where I could spend 2-3 days soaring. I have a glider rating in the U.S. and have flown a couple times in Germany at DASSU (Great place, by the way!). Based on my experience in Germany, I assume...

Folks, Does anyone have a Becker 3201 radio that I could use for 1 week at the Mifflin contest ? Mine just went belly up (I can't transmit) and I would rather not use a handheld for the contest. If anybody has a working 3201 for sale, I would consider a purchase. Todd Smith Grob 102 "3S"

Does anybody know where winch training is done in the north-eastern US ? I would like to get training sufficent to actually perform winch/auto tows. Somewhere that I could get concentrated training would be prefered. Thanks Todd Smith 3S

My glider has several cockpit placards that are in pretty sad shape. I would like to get new placards printed with white letters on black background. On a durable (maybe vinyl) sticky backed sheet. Does anybody know of a source for such printing ? Or have an alternate that they suggest ? I...

This would be perfect for a simple GPS logger. It's cheap too. http://www.googleearthstore.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=1-TSII Todd 3S

Since the rudder waggle signal was brought up in another thread, I have a few thoughts and would like to get other opinions. I am a glider and tow pilot for my club, so I have thought these through from both ends. To start with, if the tow plane gives you a wave off signal, THERE IS TIME TO...

Electronics guru's, Can I use 1 speaker for both by radio (Becker 3201) and vario (LX160). Both call for a 4ohm speaker. Would connecting both to one speaker still work ? Would it be too quiet ? Any chance for damage to the radio or vario ? Thanks
