Selling for a friend at Wurtsboro, NY. Never used but it will need a new tire... $100 Gregg

Can anyone please tell me the original tyre designation for a Jantar Std 2 (SZD-48-2). I don't have ready access to the manuals at the moment. I think it was 350x135 like the original Blanik one. I know most of them have been replaced with 5.00x5 tyres and that they usually rub on the...

Hi, I'd like to hear about the people who were able to compare the performance of an LS-4 with an ASW-20 in weak, average and/or strong conditions. Which climbs best? Which glides best? By what kind of advantage (is one glider really better than the other, or just average?) Overall, which is the...

Hi, My ASW-20 is equipped with an LX4000 (no GPS) connected to an LX20 as a GPS source. Everything seems to work fine except the wind calculation. Yesterday, the wind was pretty strong. After a couple of turns in a few thermals and straight flight toward my first waypoint, the LX4000 tells me...

Hi, I was reading the Johnson's ASW-20 flight evaluation. He says the -6 degrees flap setting is useless and that 0 degree is better up to 76kts, where the -9 degrees should then be selected.

Anyone engineered a good in-panel installation of their portable P- Flarm unit? Trying to get mine off the glare shield (see YO hall of shame) of my a- model Schempp, and would like to use the unit's internal GPS antenna if possible. Have seen a bracket commercially available, but it's aluminum...

Anyone have any experience with the gas strut failing in the compressed position? My 2002 fiberglass top didn't quite open fully on its own in March, so I ordered replacement struts. Unfortunately, the next time out the top only opened a few feet, then progressively less as I tried to lower and...

Wondering if anyone's done this. Is there a way to structure a syndicate to best simplify licensing, etc.?
