jams

I'm going to use the term 'standard glider' to represent any non-acro 15m glider, (ASW 19/20, Speed Astir, LS range, DG range, PIK20D etc) not standard class.
I recently started...

Blanik Weak Link for Winch Launch??? by
Gary Emerson
I'm really curious what weak link people are using to winch launch
Blaniks with. If you are using the CG bridle, do you use the blue tost
weak link (in the BGA list) or a stronger one? Blue seems too weak and
wants to break frequently and under only moderate climb angles. The
L-13 manual...

Ultimate soaring challenges or adventures by
nimbusgb
I am looking to compile a list of 'The Ultimate Soaring Adventures'.
I'd
appreciate any input from the forum on what they see as the pinnacle
of
soaring whether it is a 1000km task, flying New Zealands wave or some
other goal that may be beyond the day-to-day pilots reach.
I'll put up a list on a...

Dittel FSG71 Radio / Squelch Questions by
Bastoune
All,
My radio (Dittel FSG 71) Squelch seems to be a bit sensitive (but by design, cannot be adjusted by the pilot). In my case, when flying, the squelch is a bit sensitive and the “white noise” of the radio comes on at times, even when there are no communications received. I can always reset the...
