I was prepared for the insurance, the hangar rent for the trailer, the new relief system, etc. I must admit that I was not prepared for the new solid surface counter tops, the new diswasher, the new stove, and the new flooring. Why didn't you all warn of the reciprocal spending by my spouse...

I noticed one thing: The ASK-21 in your video has "braces" (Dunno what they are properly called) inside the canopy that those of my future club don't seem to have: http://www.akaflieg-bonn.de/flugbetr/flugzeug.htm Or

I am looking for a source for a replacement bottle jack for a cobra trailer ramp (yes, I know I should switch to the mechanical jack and all problems will go away, but I don't want to go down that route yet). The Torin 2-ton jack that Walmart and Autozone sell is extremely poorly built, in addition...

As a glider pilot, when are you allowed to use a zero altimeter setting? Back in July, I asked the FAA for a legal opinion regarding FAR 91.121. Yesterday, I finally received a response. There is reason for a continued dialog, and I am continuing the discussion with the FAA legal...

Hi Does anyone have any info on what serial port is connected to the USB on an iPAQ 310/312. I am trying to help setup one with XCsoar and feed in Flarm data as well. I have the Flarm data at the correct voltage levels but I can't work out what serial port the iPAQ thinks is...

For a little gas on the fire...I'm curious. Besides the P-124 Aviator by Rigging Innovations: http://www.rigginginnovations.com/products/aviator.htm or having Softie put a ram air in one of their harnesses, what other square emergency rigs are out there as options and which do you 'squares'...

Looking for a set of 16.6m tips for a ventus B. (No I haven't lost them) :-) Thanks Chris

Has anybody had experience with these heated soles in a glider: http://gerbing.com/Products/insoles.php ? would it be better to get sock? Some of these types of products have horrible reviews but these have good reviews on a retailer's website. Most of the threads on heated socks are old and...

Our club (NJ - USA) has folded and we still have an L-13 taking up space. Before I call the local scrap yard I thought I'd ask if anyone might be interested in buying it at scrap value with the dreams of getting airworthy again. We also have an open trailer for it that will be available separately...

Perhaps someone out in r.a.s land may be able to point me in the direction of a commercial piece of equipment which would perform the following task. I would like to be able to charge up a 12 volt (nominal) gell cell battery and then plug it into a piece of equipment to check its total...

In his article on avoiding PIO in Grob 103's, http://www.soaringsafety.org/pilots/ic8.htm Dean Carswell writes, "the more the airbrakes are closed, the less pitch stability the Grob will have, making a PIO more likely if otherwise mishandled" Is there a simple explanation why opening the...

I've sold my old glider and now I'm in the market for a new one. This time I'm going the single-place route. There seems to be a sweet spot in the price/performance curve when looking at the older open class gliders like the Open Cirrus, Jantar 2 (A or B), LAK 12 etc... I haven't ruled out 15...

I've agreed to make a 20-30 minute presentation to the local Kiwanis group about soaring. I'm hoping someone has a suitable Powerpoint presentation they can email me, so I can adapt it to our local situation without having to start from scratch. That should be a lot quicker and easier than coming...
