The (?)-amp, 5x20mm fuse in the instrument panel was blown, as well as the 0.25 amp fuse of the same size on the back of the B40. I know...

Anyone here know if there is any soaring activity in the United Arab Emirates or Dubai? A local friend thinks I should go over there and start a soaring school. He's a real nice guy but I take his ideas with a grain of salt. That said, he does know a lot of folks there and thinks they would not...

Hi all, I am German glider pilot and will be working in the Bay Area early Feb of 2009. As I will have one free weekend (most likely the weekend of the 7th) I thought I'll check out soaring possibilities. Now it's highly unlikely that I will have my German license transferred to a US...

While visiting a relative working in the Philipines last January, I had the pleasure of meeting an extrordinary German glider pilot and instructor, Rolf Dunder.

In a Yahoo group, MinimalistAirplaneStudyGroup, it has been asserted that a homebuilt aircraft registered as experimental can be registered as a motorglider, regardless of wingspan and gross weight capacity. For example, one could build something like the 18 foot wingspan, 550 pound maximum...

What could soaring possibly have in common with nuclear weapons? To find out, read my new article "Soaring, Cryptography and Nuclear Weapons" at http://www.nuclearrisk.org/soaring_article.php If nuclear weapons are too much of a turn off, take a look at the related lecture on flying safety which...

Discovery HD Channel is airing a special on Steve Fossett next Monday at 10PM eastern 7PM PST. They took footage of my Husky flying along the eastern flank of the Sierra, as it's blue and white and "sort of like" the plane Steve was flying. For the interview part, I got them to set up with one...

Does anyone have a contact e-mail or phone for Ruth Gimmey? (I assume the wife of Ray Gimmey) I was told that she may have SCUM t-shirts or know where to get them.

I just recieved an email from Dr. Jack. The new blipmaps with higher resolution have been reproduced from the data on Sept. 3, 2007 are far superior and trump the ruc model shown on my Blog. The privacy rights are of no longer any concern and will be released shortly. The RUC blipmap on my...

Does anyone know of a place in northern New Jersey, southern New York or eastern Pennsylvania that will hydrotest a carbon filament-wrapped oxygen bottle (MH part number 480). The best solution I've found so far is to ship it back to Mountain High with a 3 week turn-around. Thanks, Ray...
