SNav / LNav Question by
Dan Pitman
Hi,
Does anyone know the difference between an LNav and
and SNav? I know historically the LNav was positioned
as a 'budget' SNav, but looking at the manuals for
the current versions there doesn't seem to be any appreciable

Junior World Championships - FAI Rules Absurdity by
Kevin Christner

Ls8 vs SZD--55 by
[email protected]
How do these compare? Not performance wise (no ambition to fly comps and still a beginner at ca 100 hours) though specs seem close for ls8 in 15m config but in all other aspects.
