Hi all, I've come across a recent (2005) update on Kai's article on Cross Country. I shared it with my folks over in madrid (www.clubom.org, you are invited to come in...) and they love it. However, they are requesting a translation. In spain, not everyone can fully understand english. I do not...

Hi, So, which is the best GPS unit to buy for eventual use in a sailplane? Thanks, Tom (remove all the numbers in the addess REPLY won't work)

Hi, 1 inch gap tape. Not a good as the best that is out there, but, hey!, it is 10 rolls for US$20 post paid in the United States (lower 48). After I pay postage that works out to about US$1 a roll. If you need some for Christmas, contact me.

Hi, End of the season sale. 30 rolls of white gap tape for US$40 (post paid in the US). End of the season and a few boxes of tape left. Go together with a friend and stock up for next year. Tape is 1 inch wide and approximately 30 meters long.

Hi, I still have some gap tape left. 25mm (about 1 inch) by 30 meters white Pretty good for the price 10 rolls for $20 postpaid to anywhere in the USA

I got tired of using 3/4 inch electrical tape as gap tape. A friend ran off some 25mm (approximately 1 inch) tape for me. This works well for me. It is similar to the 3/4 electrical tape, but wider and slightly thinner. Unfortunately, to get him to do a production run, I had to take more than I...

I have rolls of 1 inch (25mm) "gap tape" for $1.25 a roll if you take a minimum of 10 rolls and pay for shipping. This is NOT as good as the $6 a roll tape, but it is pretty good. I was using electrical tape at $2.95 a roll that was only 3/4 inch wide and I find that this is a good substitute and...

I still have some gap tape left. Several people have bought some rolls and think it is a pretty good value. I had to buy a crate of the stuff (more than I can use in 20 years) so that I would have 1 inch tape rather than 3/4 inch electrical tape. It is 25mm by 30 meters. Each roll is...

I normally assemble and dis-assemble my glider each time I fly. As a result, I go through a fair amount of gap tape each soaring season. In the past, I have used the 3/4 inch electrical tape to save on cost. The problem is that 3/4 inch didn't work as well as the 1 inch tape. I tried several...

I seem to remember a discussion about in flight problems with Nimbus sailplanes. I tried to find it and could not. Can someone fill me in on the details? Which model of Nimbus (I, II, III)? What was the specific problem? Thanks, Thomas

Hi, We are looking for a used prop for a Vivat Motorglider. The current prop was a Hoffman V218B fitted to the Walter Mikron Engine. We are looking for this same prop or similar.

Hi, I live on the west coast and am considering buying a glider on the east coast. This means a problem of transporting the glider from the east coast to the west. Two possibilities: (1) I go get it. This means that I could pull your glider to the east coast for you. Anyone need a glider...

Hi, I have a K7 that I am restoring and another K7 that I am parting out. I would like to trade all or parts from the second K7 for instruments, radio, etc. Need just about anything. Could use a 2.5 inch mechanical vario, 2.5 inch electric vario, etc, etc. The K7 I am parting out is in really...

Hi, Can someone tell me how to remove the flaps and ailerons on an LS3a? Need to do some refinishing work. Thanks, Tom )

Hi, I have a Terra 760 that doesn't work. (Long story if you want to hear it.) (1) Any idea who fixes these things? (2) Any suggestions as to problem: (The LED numbers aren't showning up as nice distinct numbers. They look

Hi, I'm looking for a one man rig. If you have one, that you are interested in getting rid of, please contact me. Thanks, TTJ

I have a PIK20. The main tire was in need of a change, so I took the wheel off today, took out the three bolts that hold the wheel halves together, then spent over 2 hours trying to get the wheel halves to separate. I am stumped. Light tapping has proves that one wheel half will rotate...

My club wants to use one logger in our training glider to log multiple flights with different pilots for the purpose of reviewing flights as well as post in OLC. Is it possible to change the pilot info in the logbook after a days flying and then upload each Pilot’s flight?

20 rolls of white one inch wide gap tape shipping in the US included $32 This is not as good as the $5 a roll tape, but if you assemble and disassemble daily it is a very useable tape that will save you some money. If you consider that the shipping is included, the actual cost of the
