Is there a place to find the cumulative results for this contest? I can find the individual day results on the SSA webpage, but no cumulative results.

Just as a "hypothetical," say one wanted to relocate to Canada for a period of, say, four years or so -- maybe eight, maybe permanently.... And one owns a glider registered in the Experimental, Racing and Exhibition Category. Are there issues bringing this along? Can it be flown there with US...

What rules of thumb for min width do you use when choosing runways to avoid lights for 15m and 18m ships? Crosswinds? Are the lights at a standard distance from the asphalt in the US? Do any of you hang your wings over the lights?

How much performance advantage does an "A" model (Ventus or Discus) have over a "B" model. Looking for some numbers, but I can't seem to find anything definitive.

I drove 11 hours to attend this FIRC from Tom and Doris and is was well worth it! The first time I attended a safety seminar by Tom almost 20 years ago it changed the way I flew. This clinic has changed the way I'm going to teach. If you ever have a chance to go to one of his presentations, do...

One occasionally gets an "FAA General Aviation Activity Survey" in the mail. The questions are tied to your N-number and most have little to do with soaring/gliders. Where is this data massed and is it easily accessable? Do they separate gliders as their own category? If not, is this...

Has anybody tried succeeded in getting the EW Uploader to run on Linux under WINE and successfully talk to an EW Model D? I'm using WINE 1.1.9 under Fedora 9. The uploader seems to run OK and can see the logger when I boot it, but for some reason its not managing to login to the model D. The...

Doris and I just finished a successful Glider pilot safety clinic and Flight instructor revalidation clinic at Minden, Nevada. Pilots came from nearby states, as far away as Seattle, Washington. We received many positive comments about the value and content of the clinic. Everyone will benefit...

I recently tried to use the FAA's online procedure for replacing my paper certificates with the required plastic ones. I had no trouble at all with my Ground Instructor and Parachute Rigger tickets, but the site refused to let me replace my Commercial license, citing error # 214. After some...

Heard thru the grapevine that the visits to the Hilton Ranch for the Barron Hilton Cup winners are over after this years visits from last years winners. Checked with Hannes Linke about it, and this is the message he sent... Unfortunately, the rumors you have heard, are correct. The winners...
