Discus 2b cockpit comfort? by
Jeremy Zawodny
I've never flown in a Discus 2b but have fantasized about getting one
someday. I do have a dozen or so flights in the font seat of a Duo
Discus and while it's a *great* ship to fly, it doesn't have as much
room in the front as our club's DG-1000 does (need room for keeping
stuff during the flight)...

iPaq screen reflections - anyone really happy with their solution? by
Jim Kelly
Greetings!
Summer has begun down under, and my first flight with an iPaq
reminded me just how bad the reflections are in bright light . . .
sooo hard to read, especially when wearing sunglasses.
Were there any solutions that worked well for you Northerners this
season??
I have noted a film from...

DG Differences... by
noel.wade
Hi All,
This is a bit of a loaded question (I think both sellers are
contributors to RAS) - but I'd like to get as much feedback as
possible from as wide of an audience as possible...
I've been agonizing (here and elsewhere) between the niceties of a
DG-300 and the flapped flexibilities of an...

"10km / only once" amendment by
K.P. Termaat
Thanks to people like Ian, Robert, Herbert, Jack, Ruud, Janos and other
respectable guys, I am very much convinced now that it cannot be that an
excellent 1000 km performance is japordized by an FAI rule of which the true
intention has been fulfilled in a very convincing way.
I am talking again...

Double scissor jack for trailer ramp? by
Bullwinkle
All,
I have a new (to me) glider and trailer. Good rig, but like most things,
capable of improvement.
The ramp that extends from the back of the trailer for assembly has a
single, car style scissor (spare tire) jack for raising and lowering the
fuselage. It rocks back and forth a bit too much,...

Just pull the little red handle! by

I lost my best friend in a mid-air last November, a Cirrus hit a tow
plane in Colorado, we had a mid-air at Parowan and now the mid-air in
Uvalde!
I'm going ballistic as in Ballistic recovery system (BRS). At my age
there's no way I'm getting out of my ship unless it's straight and

ASG-29E vs. JS-1Jet Sustainer by
Gerry Simpson
I am very interested in purchasing one or the other and having difficulty weighing the merits each of because of no direct experience with either. I would like to have some advice concerning reliability, resale values, performance and build quality. Can I compare apples and apples with these two?

xcsoar by

just revisited this software in its current version 5.2
Have to say this software has really matured and I was most impressed
with it whilst flying with it yesterday.
I particularly liked the custom terrain and waypoint downloading when
setting it up.

Cheap sailplanes by
tango4
The 'which glider should we make cheaply' , 'glider classes' and some of
the traditional 'winter threads' seem to be based on the premise that if we
could build a 40:1 sailplane for some nominal amount then the steady decline
in worldwide sailplane pilot numbers can be stemmed.
