These training webinars are great. Are the prior 6 sessions of the Black Forest training webinars available somewhere on the SSA web site? Were they recorded as done in the past with other webinars and put on our web site for those that missed the original broadcasts?

I had been able in the past on the old SSA site to find a simple list of all available previously broadcast webinars but unable to find that list on the new site. I quick look-see all I find is a calendar at https://www.ssa.org/events/category/webinars/month/ that shows only future items (actually only one item at this time it seems). Its probably somewhere but I need a hint.

Thanks, John

A bit of a heads up for all you Garmin InReach users.
My flying partner UQ and I have both experienced the " sudden lack of map displayed" to contacts sent to phenomenon . The sent map info is blank.
And a couple of other random setting changes that the InReach seems to do to us.
Might be best before you head out into the wild blue is test your InReach as you would normally use it flying, maybe turn it on, select a few contacts to send to, like your own SMS and email address and drive to the store and back and see if its working correctly.
Might be worth a few minutes to hook it up to your laptop and dig into it and see where its at.
Fly safe in 2021

Kinsell - Thanks for the pointer.

A slight correction to your mentioning the last webinar listed on the SSA page. This was the seminar hosted by the Chicagoland Glider Council and their all day Seminar back in mid-February. The Council is an umbrella organization whose member clubs are Windy City Soaring Association, Sky Soaring Glider Club, and the mentioned Chicago Glider Club.

Thanks, John (OHM)

Irregardless of the exact terminology, that seminar is shown on the
website, but it's not an active link. I assume it was recorded and
eventually will be made available, when the webmaster gods find some
spare time?

Here is a tip. Just find the registration link for that exact webinar and register for it again even though it has already happened. Once you register for it you will be brought to a page with a video player where you can watch recording. No need to wait for it to go up on SSA site.
