Yaw String refference - Spinning by
Vassilios Mazis
What about the fact that we expose ourselves to 1,000,000's of
instances of instinctively responding to the string by stepping in the
direction the front end points to? Would that not lead to some kind of
conditioning that will have disasrtous results (i.e. pro-spin rudder)
when making a visual...

Yaw-Free TEK Probes by
Paul Hanson
Below is the response I got from Dr Smolik about his
intriguing new yaw free probes, which are surprisingly
a good bit cheaper than Esa probes. The advantages
of a probe free of yawing errors is obvious, especially
if you use the 'Holighous way' for thermalling (mildly
slipping your circles) as...

Yawns: Rich and young, but frugal
NEW YORK (AP) — They drive hybrid cars, if they drive at all, they fly
gliders not jets, they winch launch only, shop at local stores, if
they shop at all and pay off their credit cards every month, if they
use them at all.
'They may have disposable income, but...

year-limits for the Sports class by
[email protected]
I have been reading the threads about the Sports Class with interest. I
note that currently the Sports Class tries to adjust for performance
differences between older and newer gliders. I suspect this is always
going to be hard since the performance difference between any two
gliders is not...

Yellow Gorilla Coming Up For Sale by
Bob Youngblood
I will be departing with my beloved Yellow Gorilla Pawnee towplane in the near future. The new Towplane is named Towpecker and is another Pawnee, but a bit more HP. The Gorilla is a real beauty, extremely low time 180 HP Pawnee that is absolutely gorgeous. I really love this bird, it is a wonderful...

Yet another source for US Airport Information by
2KA
Some years ago I wrote a program to extract airport information from
the NASR data published by the FAA's National Flight Data Center.
I've finally gotten around to putting a dumb little website around it,
so that others can use it to build their own database extracts. The
site produces .CUP files...

Yikes, glad I don't have a Pegasus! by
Greg Arnold
Do I correctly understand the AD below to mean that any Pegasus in the
US with 3000 hours cannot be flown after January 6, 2006? Certainly
would have an effect of the market value of this glider, even one with
significantly less than 3000 hours. I notice that someone put one on
the market today...
