Totally unbeknownst to us, our glider had suffered some damage, probably when it rolled on a rock on landing and the rock gouged a couple of deep holes under the belly. We had no idea when this happened, and the damage was discovered only during the annual when the glider was placed upside down. ...

Ladies and Gentlemen: I've had a recurring technical issue with my FlyWithCE flight recorder purchased a couple of weeks ago, and wanted to see if others had had the same experience and could offer a possible cause or solution. Last Saturday and this Saturday, I flew flights of just under...

I am looking for a source for a clamp to hold down a oxygen bottle. I think I want a over center clamp similar to ones you see on fire extinguishers, but with safety pin. I want to take bottle out easily for refill. Bill Snead

Larry Sarner and his wife, Linda Rosa, RN are promoters of pseudoscience, quackery, and hatred. Emily Rosa is Rosa’s daughter and Sarner’s stepdaughter. A school “science fair” project was the basis for one of Sarner’s “research” papers! Sarner has denounced the validity of double blind...

Hi, Are there any glider pilots out there using the Bendix King AV8OR unit? I ask because I need help getting my unit's supplied SD card back to its original configuration. It is a great product! I have been testing it with SeeYou Mobile for PNA. You can see my review of it...

This video covers a 25 mile ridge run north of Logan Utah. Thought it might be interesting for those pilots who are thinking of flying at the Logan contest this year in August to see what the ridge headed into Idaho is...

I can't seem to find a local dealer with 165R13 trailer tires. Can anyone tell me where to get suitable tires or if you substituted something else e.g. 175/80R13 or similar and how that worked out. Thanks, IC

I have tried to go to the OLC website to make a contribution, the webpage does not make it very clear as to how it is done. Could someone who has successfully done this please post some brief instructions on how to do so. I think the OLC would get many more donations if they would add a "donate"...

I have developed a Spot data pull utility which will allow me to automatically 'pull' data from multiple spot tracker sites automatically and put them all on one KMl file to overlay on google. I'm looking for a couple of UK based spot equipped pilots to run some tests with.
