So I am scraping paint on my Ka-6, and I am getting to the point of designing a new paint scheme. First off am I correct in my interpretation that I can put 2" numbers on my Ka-6 being older than 1981? Second wasn't there an exemption from those regs anyway? I searches the SSA site for this, but...

I'm selling a brand new ClearNav stick controller designed and built by Eastern Sailplane. I purchased it several years ago but never installed it. I've now gotten used to controlling my ClearNav with the remote control in my left hand, and have decided not to install the stick version. I have...

This may be of interest to folks located in the SF Bay Area: Glider pilots have a special interest in unmanned flight as we can be very difficult to "see and Avoid" by a drone... But I want a few hundred myself to locate thermals for me :-) http://www.vlab.org/article.html?aid=463

I'm looking to buy a used Wingrigger or similar solo rigger for use on my Grob 104. The closer to CT the better. Any leads appreciated, thanks. Greg

Looks like Flexpack service time is 15 years only, so I have to purchase 2 new parachutes for our ASK-21 trainer. Should it be latest version of Flexpack, or something else? Some chutes just do not fit in that plane, and in training use (lots of 7 min flights from winch) caused wear & tear can...

Looking for a good used hand held Icom - vertex something in those line.

Looking to touch up the interior of my early 80's Nimbus and have been searching for that "just right" grey color in a rattle can (USA market). I've looked at Krylon, Rustoleum and Valspar. So far the Valspar "smoke infusion" color (85039) is closest, but it's still a bit on the light side. ...

Sean, the USB Stick only works with the Butterfly Vario so far. Actually the USRC found a very fast and non-buerocratic solution, it is completely our fault that there is no final solution yet. The long story: The USRC found a nice solution allowing a special lock-featu...
