JSW Glide Calculator by

Does anybody have a clue where I could get a "Whiz Wheel" for a
Standard Class (ASW 19)? I can't believe that everybody has absolute
faith in the reliability of their electronic glide computers. Last
week my computer lost its 3-D GPS fix and I was forced to use my
wits...not a very useful tool. ...

specifications. Fortunately I was able to read the label on my old

Warning Online Contest Registration by
Snead1
I just finished registering for three contests online through the SAA site.
While still on line I received an e-mail titled "On Line Registration". When
I opened the e-mail it had nothing to do the soaring contests. Hope I did not
pick up a virus!

Good Lift at Marfa February 22 by
Snead1
Today, Sunday February 22, soaring conditions were very good in Marfa Texas.
Cloud base was about 13,500. Thermals varied in strength, but I make a few
turns at over 7 knots. Wind was about 15 mph out of the south. I did not find
any wave.
