My CAI302 was intermittently turning off in flight, so my sailplane partner took it apart and found some loose connections. This fixed the problem, but now the push/pull arrows are missing from the display. The audio works fine. I'm sure this is a setting, but I can't find it. Can anyone...

The air scoop on my Libelle canopy lost the outer piece, so I'm looking for a replacement, either just the air scoop or the whole sliding window. Please let me know if you have a used one for sale. Thanks, Jeff

I'm looking to buy a Ka6E but all of the current owners are being stingy and won't sell. :-( Can anyone give me a comparison b/t a Ka6E and a Ka6CR? Also, are there any comparable ships you might consider in lieu of a Ka6E? Thanks! Jeff

I'm considering buying a wood sailplane in New York and want to hire someone knowledgeable to inspect it. How do I go about locating someone trustworthy and qualified to do the job? Thanks, Jeff

Lennie, It always saddens me that one of the very few glider pilots chooses to leave the sport. I have been flying gliders since 1975 and have seen many depart for a myriad of reasons. Health, economics, just tired of it, etc, etc. I have personally witnessed a few dings, scrapes and outright...

Hello, Anyone have a maintenance manual or a collection of maintenance instructions for the ASW-20?jeff

Have not flown the Eaglet, but it is the same system as on the Javelin. Control is about the same except you don't need to use as much rudder (pedal) since the spoileron creates drag on the down wing that pretty much counteracts the adverse yaw from the lift differential.I understand the Eaglet...

Hello, Anyone still flying with a speed ring on their -20. I am planning to buy a blank from Tim and would like a transfer/photo from one of the factory ones so I can make the engraving look somewhat professional. Like everyone else I have it on the PDA but would prefer to duplicate it...

This is basically the same as the operation of the Cessna Stall warning reed horn. On single engine Cessna aircraft there is a double reed with an adjusting ring in the leading edge of the wing. If the pressure gets too low, i.e. too much lift (low pressure on top of the leading edge) generated...

Congratulations Doug. This is an important step for all glider pilots. Enjoy the ride.jeff

There is an excellent program for Palm OS handhelds called Soaring Pilot. It can be found at http://www.soaringpilot. org/ jeff

If anyone needs their glider transported to any place I can do that over the summer. I have my own vehicle to use if necessary or I can use your vehicle if needed and to save money. I am also available to crew, I do already have some crewing plans for the Standard Class Nationals and a soaring...

Summer is here and I am finished with school on Monday, I will be crewing in Mifflin until June 1 but after that I am free to pick up gliders and move them to where ever they need to go. If you are interested give me a call at 505 980 5377 or send me an eamil. Thanks Jeff

Due to weather conditions beyond our control that have not permitted soaring here in PA for the last three days we have started a new competition, ping pong. John Good is in a commanding lead by over 1000 points followed by the Pakistanie Adnan who is close behind. The Polish guy, Rashad, from New...

The Pakistanie took a commanding lead today in Ping Pong by defeating everyone he played, he is well ahead in the contest, maybe another contest tomorrow of a different type, hopefully he does as well there also Jeff

Anyone needs a glider transported I am still available for certain dates, let me know. 505 980 5377 Jeff

I am available to go anywhere to do the pick up, just to know I am out of Albuquerque. If interested give...
