Hello, my name is Frank and I recently bought an Apis M 15m 2005 with 300tt hours and 40 engine hours. The glider is very new. Does someone has any tips to give me about this glider, and if it's easy or some particular thing in flight? I just flew gliders, this is my first motorglider. Thanks...

Hi everyone. I'm wanting to complete my CFI-G add-on training soon. I'd like to do it in a Pipistrel Sinus if possible, but I'm having a hard time finding one to use in the US. If anyone knows of somewhere I can do this, please let me know. Thank you all so much for your help. I truly...

This is on the SLGP web site. Important Notice Dear Friends, Seminole-Lake is my soul business and for as long as I lived, my intention was never to sell it. Due to family problems and COVID-19 issues I must take a decision about its future, therefore I’m determined to sell half of the...

Trying to get a club member's SPOT registered with glideport. I keep getting the message "Bad URL" when I paste his publicly available shared URL into the list of available trackers. Also tried pasting it to his account on the SSA as a belt and suspenders approach, but we're still not seeing a...

Hi all. I have started building a larger plane but due to health issues at age 71 I though maybe I should rachet it down some. I have only flown c 172's and a Piper Warrior. So I bought the plans for the Sands and am wondering if I should make the tube fuselage or the wood one. My skills are wood...

Hello I'm considering building the glider ... have the plans... was wondering if this group was still active? Thanks Robert

a new facebook group was just created, maybe good if some other people familar with this type join. This group intends to team up SF 34 owners worldwide. We like to have a platform to exchange information and tips about one of the best two-seater...

Was told by a regulator that there is a repair facility being put in place by Blanik to get the spar AD compliance somewhere in Indiana. Before anybody gets excited, there's apparently a fairly diverse number of materials that went into building this communist bloc (not that there's anything...

The situation at Omarama is still all up in the air. Glide Omarama where closing, then they were re-opening, but they failed to renew their agreement with the Omarama Airfield. As a result, this announcement came out last week: Omarama Airfield Limited The above company owns and operates the...

I have recently had spinal surgery so my plans were changed. I was beginning a ULF-1 but realized that I won't be carrying that on my back.... so I had awhile ago ordered the 1929 primary glider... so looks like that's where I'm headed at this point.

Ramy completed the real-life very challenging outlanding in a tailwind, uphill. His glider had a little damage from a groundloop. I’m guessing he did the groundloop because he was very close to the trees at the end of the fairway. See the golf course in satellite view and his landing track at ...

My Royal Robbins are finally dying. What have you guys liked in long convertible pants with good pockets for todays bigger phones? Thanks Kevin 92

I have a lightly used LX9050 for sale. This is a bare computer, without the matching V8 vario. I'm asking $1500, and it would take another $1500-1600 to get the V8 vario and cables needed to make a complete system. That's a substantial savings over the $4300 the entire system costs new. There is...

Was chatting with an FAA engineer about an unrelated matter and the subject of JAR specs for sailplanes came up. I mentioned almost in passing that it sure seemed like if any new ground was plowed on batteries it would be OSTIV and EASA that paved it. He replied that if a manufacturer actually...

This site is really a one-stop site for most aviation weather and other info like TFRs: https://weathercams.faa.gov/ Kudos to the FAA for doing something really right.

I just wanted to comment on the SSA webinar last night with Cindy B David L Bruno V and put together by John De Rosa Thanks for all who put these webinars together! It seemed to me that John DeRosa was really pushing the PLB device. I could be wrong but that's what I read into it. Maybe because...
