Volkslogger - Shut off the memory warning buzzer? by
BJen
I fly with the sample rate on my VL set to give me about 9+
hours of data recording. That's sufficient for two normal
flights, and I usually dump it after every flight. However,
the thing begins complaining about low memory when it has 8
hours left, and it keeps complaining every few minutes. ...

Where are the CFIG's? by
Michael
The advertisement for CFIG's recently posted, and the discussion it
spawned, made me realize something. I have yet to see a soaring club
that had enough CFIG's. I'm sure they're out there, but I bet they're
not the norm. Some have waiting lists to join if you lack a glider
rating. Some have...

Cheaper tows? by

FLAPS by
skysailor
I have approximately 110 hours in sailplanes in the past 2 years and
had no prior experience. I am evaluating used gliders for purchase.The
big kahuna's in the club are pretty adamant about purchasing a first
glider without flaps. My question is: Are flaps that big a problem for
a low time pilot...

Does anyone out there in r.a.s. land know how to get a German Oxygen
cylinder recertified to DOT specifications, and a place to get it done? I
think it is out of date, and I got I with the glider, a DG800B. It appears
to be in good shape-no dings or scratches. It has no DOT cert number on the

What happens if a sailplane has no horiz stabilizer or elevator? by
Mark James Boyd
There are some designs which have no horizontal stab: flying wings
for example. There are also canard setups (the speed canard, for example).
For a sailplane, I was thinking about how one might design away
the typical T-tail stabilizer and elevator.
First of all, how much dynamic stability does...

Sparrowhawk handling by
Hartley Falbaum[_2_]
Is the Sparrowhawk handling suitable for a low time glider pilot who flies infrequently? How is pitch and roll sensitivity compared to say, a Discus B? One of our club members seems to have a big problem staying in position on tow. He does just OK in a K21. I need to know how to help him or...

Cobra trailer wiring diagram by

Panel volt meter by
Bob C
I just found a really nice panel volt meter. It is
7/8' X 1-3/4' X 1/8'. Weighs nothing. It needs a
single 7/32' hole for mounting. The wires run through
the single hollow mounting stud to the rear of the
panel. Really slick! 2 wires (+V & ground). Reads
4V to 25V. It's from Lascar...
