It periodically checks availability of the primary. When/if it returns, it will automatically be selected. I don't...

Hello RAS pilots, I've added rental aircraft search to the aircraftIO website - you can take a look at it he http://www.aircraft.io/rentals/all/ Currently, there is only one glider category rental, but it is easy to additional ones. You can easily add photos too, but _please_ only add ones...

I've managed to lose track of the US national sport class trophy and could use some assistance locating it. Last known position was at the 2013 sport national contest at Mifflin. The winner was John Seymour, but he did not take it home, and a search of the airport turned up nothing. It should...

Just checked my policy and it said a number of things about my pilot license, but nothing specifically about not breaking FAR's. It said my pilot license must not be suspended or revoked and that I must be current. This would include a biannual and those 3 takeoffs and landings within the last 90...

A friend uses a Cambridge model 20 (or 25?) gps and made two flights last Sunday. The first flight didn't last long and he took a relight. When he used SeeYou to submit the flight to OLC, it was rejected (I don't know if SeeYou rejected it or OLC) because, according to him, 'too much time...

I am entering into a leaseback arrangement a member of my glider club for the use of my glider. We have agreed to terms and now need some sort of contract. Do any of you have a template for such an agreement or can you point me to where I might find one?

A rest day was called today because of yesterday's tragic loss of Herman Weiss, but the contest will continue. Tim has some details of the accident on his blog. Apparently, it was a high-speed impact with terrain shortly after the second turnpoint. The wreckage and Herman's body were spotted...

I'll be delivering a glider to SE New York state Sat and leaving for the midwest late Sat or early Sun and could pull a trailer westbound for a very reasonable fee. Matt Michael

No more worrying about gelcoat refinish costs, or the newest flight computer. Just get rid of the flying aspect of the sport and stick to fighting over the rules!! Think of all the graduating speech majors we could recruit as new members :) All kidding aside, over the history of sailplane...
