Hi all I am now the owner of a lovely 1973 Grob built Standard Cirrus - a thing of beauty. What intrigues me is that the the glider has no water ballast in the wings and looks as if it came straight from the factory like this. No connector in the wing root and nothing in the cockpit to indicate...

1. The Standard Cirrus was not chosen for Deturbulator experiments. It was what we had to work with. *That's all. *Turns out, the stability of top surface reattachment point worked to our benefit.* 2. Since going my own way with this work, I have dismantled the parts of the original configuration...

I purchased a Standard Cirrus with a bent C-Hook. This was bent when the previous owner was putting the fuselage in the trailer. I ordered a new C-Hook from M&H Soaring and they sent me the new gray C-Hook and as you can see, it is a different size. Should I try to find another small one like the...

Hello All, A quick question for all those Standard Cirrus owners out there. A friend and I are looking at purchasing a glider, and a Standard Cirrus fits our budget and performance requirements. The glider we are looking at is in good shape; however, it is nearing the 3000 hour life limit with...

On Sunday I saw 2 regional airliners and King Air inbound to Wichita. Has anyone come up with a PowerFLARM mounting solution for a Std. Cirrus that won't get me on the Hall of Shame? Not enough space on top of the glare shield to keep the antennas straight. Thanks! Tony

Hey everyone, I'm looking to improve my ground handling gear for a standard cirrus. Does anybody have a really nice tail dolly, I could buy a new one from wings and wheels, but a very nice used one would be as good. Also, I'm working on a disk brake mod that might or might not be approvable, and...

The Standard Cirrus web site has been moved to a new home. It now lives in a folder at www.oxaero.com. It will take several days for the domain name to catch up. Until then, www.standardcirrus.org will point to the old site, or may not work at all for a day to so. Meanwhile, you can...

The Standard Cirrus web site will be temporarily offline while it switches to a new server. It should be back in a few days, possibly a week if the switch does not go smoothly. JEH

does anyone have a cg equipped standard cirrus with a g-88 release instead of the original S-72?

http://ssa.org/members/badgesandrecords/RecordTable.asp 448.24mi Fritz Seger 8/29/1987 Not to diminish Fritz Seger's fantastic flight but, I would have thought this record would have been surpassed on some of the ridges in the east by now. Is going for this record unappealing to a lot of pilots?

20 years ago there was a waiting list to fly National contests. Could it be that nationals today are really designed for a small number of pilots that like 'extreme competition', long task, long hours, new types of tasks, no crews etc. 20 years ago nationals seemed to be designed for a broader...

Just a reminder--The preferential entry date is fast approaching. Apr 7 for RVSo and Apr 8 for Std Nats at Cordele. We need to know how many towplanes we will need as it is a remote site. Thanks

Any ideas as to why the very low number of contestants (12) at the recent Standard Class National Soaring Contest in California? John Byrd & Burt Compton Marfa Gliders, west Texas www.FLYGLIDERS.com

I am considering a one-man to assist in the assembly - I figure it will work but since the wings are a bit bigger than other gliders I assist with assembly, I'm curious if other jantar-drivers use a one- man and comments on how it works if they do. Thanks in advance, John

Does any have, or could anyone take a picture of the port side of of the main wheel on a Standard Jantar 41A? I’m having a heck of a time figuring out the trick to get it back together and adjusted correctly. Thanks!
