fcst24 alternative to XCSoar? by
son_of_flubber
Win Pilot is overlaying fcst24 data in their moving map app.
fcst24 looks interesting even without Win Pilot. Modest subscription fee. Is anyone in the USA using fcst24 for soaring?

Air space file for India - Oudie by
Thomas Van de Velde
Out of curiosity: Where would you be flying in India? While I've noticed great conditions for soaring, I haven't seen much private aviation activity, let alone glider flying.
Thanks,
Thomas

Amazing Milestone by
[email protected]
Back in 1955 Walt Cannon learned to fly gliders at the Schweizer Soaring School in Elmira. As was common then, he soloed in a 2-22. After a time, Bernie Carris decided he was ready for a single seat glider and put him in the then new 1-26.
He was the first "kid" to fly a 1-26. Recently I found out...

I would like to wire the sensor switches that I already have in place for my landing gear and spoilers to my LXNav S80 vario. The S80 user's manual offers little information on how to accomplish this. Hopefully, others before me have got this working, and can offer some advice.

Blanik L-13 Weight and Balance by
Markus Graeber
We need to get a weight and balance done for our Blanik L-13. The
manuals are not really helpful referring to percentage of MAC (mean
aerodynamic chord) for the CG range without saying how much MAC is
nor where the reference plane/datum is (probably the wing root rib).
I dug up the FAA type...

My LS 8 came with one of these. Since I've got some questions the manual does not seem to address...was wondering if someone who knows this unit might get back to me.
