Water ballast rookie question by
Tom Nau
I fly an ASW-28. The under-surface of the wing has a nice little piece
of plastic that covers the dump valve and which is hinged by a piece
of cloth tape. When flying with water ballast my assumption is that
correct procedure is to leave the piece of plastic in place, but open
and hanging down from...

Weak link - single or reserve? by
Tom Nau
Hi All,
Our commercial operation (more like a club) is starting to do winch
launches. I just bought a Tost weak link for my glider from W&W. Are
most people using a "single" weak link or a "single and a reserve"
weak link? Thanks.

Airstart reliability by
Tom Nau
A friend of mine recently was involved in an outlanding accident. It
seems as though having an engine on-board would help to avoid
outlandings and therefore outlanding accidents. If there are any
generalities to be made, which are generally more reliable for
airstarts - sustainer systems or...

PowerFlarm Core and RS232 by
Tom Roth
I'm confused about the RS232 feature with my PowerFlarm core.
The manual decribes the interface as RS232 but doesn't mention
the voltage levels. Is it the voltage levels called out in the
standard (-3 to -15, +3 to +15) or are these digital voltage
levels (0, 5) with the RS232 protocol? I see...
