Hello John,

Here in the states, condom catheters are available at most medical
supply stores (the ones that sell various crutches, canes, incontinency
products, etc.). They are also available here at some drug stores and
of course, online.

Most pilots here rig up some sort of tubing to the glider so that it
exits outside. So you simply hook up to the existing plumbing with a
quick disconnect and you are ready to go...

In US they are available mail order from pharmaceutical suppliers.
Much cheaper to buy in bulk than individually. I have used
sportaid.com. I would expect they ship overseas if you don't find a
supplier in UK.

Hi these are available to buy in the uk without a prescription - I havent
got the prices to hand but any pharmacy can supply though they may have to
order for you. (should be next day ) Bags are also available in various
sizes and long/short tube lengths. You may have to specify a size for best
fit! they usually come in boxes of 30 but if they have regular customers
may split a box.

more details on their main website http://www.coloplast.co.uk/


One word of warning based on personal experience - always keep an eye on
external air temps if using the tube overboard method

Which is why some of us who fly in colder climates here in the
northeastern US have a T fitting in the line where the condom is
attached. A second length of tubing is attached to the T and is long
enough to reach your mouth, so that you can blow the line clear as
soon as you are finished peeing. I know, I know...

Does anybody in the UK supply the Colder connectors that Darryl mentions
on his blog page?


Darryl: it looks like Colder have rearranged their site. Your reference
now points to an 'our page has moved' page and I can't now tell which
connector model you recommended. Did you mean the PLC series PLCD1704
body and PLCD2204 hose barb? Those are '1/4" flow' units.

One point I don't understand: do I need both units valved or just the
pilot side? The comment about the glider side whistling would tend to
indicate that there is no valve on that side.


Stephen: both the sites you mention are inaccessible at present (03 Jan,
13:42), but both are pingable, so I suppose they'll reappear in a day or
two. BTW, 'host' shows that they share an IP.

Hi Martin,

I have the Colder CPC fittings on my web site. I also give some advice on
which ones to use. Shipping to the U.K. for those very lightweight items is
inexpensive if you use USPS 1st Class International Airmail - around $5.
