For Santa Dave, here is my SN10 Xmas wishlist: 1. Ability to save and recall multiple tasks (2 or 3 at least). Since the US allows retasking in the air with the emphasis on previously set backup tasks, this would be a huge safety enhancement. Anyone who has tried to setup a new AAT task in his...

Last year for the first time since I bought my gilder I discovered what cold, humid, Northern California winter air can do to the untreated steel parts on my glider. This year I was determined to keep corrosion at bay and bought a dehumidifier to put in the trailer. I also bought one of those...

I just found the latest copy of People magazine in a seatback pocket on my flight. When I started flipping through the pages during my break, I found an interesting advertisement on page 7. I wish I could post the picture on here, but apparently images can't be uploaded. Looks like Chrome Azzaro...

Would any Oudie users care to comment on their flying experiences with the Oudie? Particularly cockpit readability, unit dependability and ease of use, or any other pro's or con's you might care to comment on. Thanks! Mark Akerley

However, it does not allow for any presentation of attachments, graphics, or other useful information. I am likely in a small minority, but when I...

Does anybody have a link to the web site for the upcoming South African Nationals Thanks UH

Which GPS system do you use? A friend of mine and I still navigate with the maps but now the time has come that we want to purchase a GPS system. Any recommendations?

I need some help with the the Aero 1530 (CE 2.11). A bit strange for me I know since I'm the one usually giving help with this PDA. I'm guessing many of the folks that still use this ancient device are sailplane pilots, hence the post here. I'm stuck with a corrupted contacts file. It displays...

I was looking at the SSA website this morning to find a full schedule for the convention in January, but only came up with a partial listing of speakers. Does anyone know if a full lineup has been published? Thanks Pete

New forum member, glad I found this resource! I'm in the midst of purchasing an ASW-19 that has a Standard C of A...and am mulling over (because of some of the projects/instrumentation/maintenance/etc) if it would be beneficial to convert the certificate over to Experimental. If the conversion...

Anyone have any experience/thoughts to share about winch launching a shempp-hirth SHK? My example has CG tost hook on gear leg. Thanks, Scott W.

I'm moving this to a new thread since it has nothing to do with the requirement for altimeter TSO. I asked what happened if a mode S transponder was installed without an ICAO address. That was a sort of tongue in cheek reaction to the idea that someone would not want their tail number broadcast...
