Colibri and Winpilot PRO by
[email protected]
Several websites that sell Colibris say that "Versions later than 2.1
include full SeeYou Mobile/WinPilot PRO support."
Does this mean that the climb maximizer function will work if a PDA
running WP PRO is hooked up to a Colibri only? This seems to
contradict the info on the Winpilot...

get first or last?
I am especially interested in a motorglider called the Virus (what an
unfortunate choice of name!). Does a glider certificate let you...

LS4 Water valve control rod wanted by
Frank
I managed to lose one of the two approximately 18" metal water-valve
control rods for my LS-4 (don't ask - its a long and embarrasing
story). This is the rod that extends from the pilot control on the
right side of the cockpit back to the bulkhead. I contacted the factory
(now DG) about obtaining a...

Wing Bending Oscillation by
jcarlyle
On my ASW-19B's airworthiness test report there's an entry for "rate of
wing bending oscillation". Two questions:
1. Why would a pilot want to know this frequency? Flutter prevention?
Attachment integrity?
2. How would he go about obtaining it? Accelerometer and frequency
counter?...

DG AD Note - Just Inspect or Must Fix? by
ContestID67
I decided to start a new thread on this topic as my question is more
specific.
In the DG technical note (TN301/23, 323/14, 359/21 or 826/44) it
provides three solutions (paraphrased below):
1) Inspect the bearing and if all is ok, leave it alone.
2) If the bearing is loose, peen it over to hold...
