With excellent soaring conditions forecast for today, I decided to take the Cherokee on a trip. Sure wouldve been nice to put more miles on, but I fell out of booming skies after about an hour and a half flight. Made it about 50 nautical miles to a really nice field. Here is the report copied...

I don't recall ever seeing an estimate of the performance loss in a glider as a function of yaw string deflection. Does anyone know what it is? Ultimately, I'm wondering how much attention should be paid to deflections of, say, 1/8", 1/4", 1/2", etc., on the usual 4"-5" long yaw string. I...

Hi all, I got a bit bored and started filming some glider electronics experiments. I am attempting to pitch them to be interesting and understandable even if you don't know much about electronics. First up: Glider Electronics Experiment #1 - electrical crosstalk demonstrated Available...

The movie "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" includes no soaring and no gliders, but in one scene there is a _picture_ of a sailplane hanging on the wall. http://home.comcast.net/~johan.larson/soaring/sunshine_sailplane.jpg Can anyone identify the sailplane from the picture? It's white,...

The aft wing locks on my Grob G102 are just about at their limits and it looks like I will be installing oversize bearings to correct this. Does anyone have experience doing this and if so, how difficult of a job is it? Tim
