PowerFLarm expected range by
[email protected]
So I've got my new PowerFlarm brick installed and I'd guess that it was losing the other PowerFlarm in the area when the distance between us was between 2 to 2.5 miles. Obviously this is good for collision avoidance, but I was kind of hoping for more range. The other pilot reported similar range....

A Talking Airspeed Indicator by
Soartech
Last year I was looking for such a device to allow me to montitor my speed more easily on approach so I didn't have to glance at the panel during this critical stage of flight. I found this affordable, small box that plumbs into your pitot line and runs on 12V. It is made in England. I only turn it...

First Solo by
vic20owner
Well, It's been about 1 year asked about where to learn to fly gliders
in Central FL on this newsgroup. Several of you directed me to
Seminole Lake Gliderport, and my mom purchased an intro flight for me
for my 37th birthday 6/21/2008. I did my 1st flight (my intro) on Dec
12 2008, and today,...

sport airplane from private glider by
Andy[_1_]
In a recent thread it was asserted that it was possible to get sport
pilot airplane privileges without taking a knowledge test and flight
test if the pilot held a private glider rating. For some reason I
cannot see that thread. I had doubts that this was true and followed
up with AOPA.
The text...

Olancha, CA Landing Strip -- Worsening Condition by
Steve Pawling
I drove by the Olancha strip last week and found that it is in even
worse condition than the last time I saw it. Brush is starting to get
sizable on the "cleared" landing area. The strip was already marginal
even for 15M but the brush encroaching on the open area almost
guarantees a ground loop. If...
