Well IGC are letting in the ASW20 and Discus into Club Class next year, (and increasing the handicap on the Std. Cirrus at long last!). Which one should I buy - which is likely to be more competetive? or is there an alternative? I would like higher performance for non-competetive distance flying.

The discussion on tow vehicles hits home. I have to replace the trusty Accord with something that has a beefier hitch attachment point. I've managed to rip the hitch off from the bottom of the trunk twice now. Car: 2000 Honda Accord V6 sedan, 201,000 miles. Trailer: 2006 Swan, with fiberglass...

Which vehicle to tow a glider trailer has been debated ad nauseum on RAS. I have always been a staunch supporter of towing with a full-size truck. After the events of last Thursday, I feel my position is vindicated. I was towing my sailplane westbound on Interstate 40 near Gallup, NM. I had...

Our club has a Piper Pawnee 235hp in excellent condition. We just spent $35000 five years ago to completely overhaul her...new fabric, new engine, anything that needed to be replaced was... Heres the rub...we are in the middle of a new two place acquisition with the club making a decision about...

Our family family recently enjoyed a special one-day's visit to our home and the gliderport from Les Schweizer. Kinda rare out here in the Southwest.

Is it allowed to register one pilot (same name and same date of birth) for two different clubs, and is it possible at all?! I fly for two different clubs. Suppose I'm not the only one?

If you've considering an upgrade to your PDA, I'd still be interested in your Aero and Cambridge PDA mount.

A debate has arisen in our small club regarding CFIG and tow pilots getting paid under certain circumstances. First, a little background. We have less than ten active members, three CFIGs (two who are available only part time and a third who just got his ticket). Our membership has been stagnant...
