Hey Abigel, I'll take the 7.5 million. You will definitely not be placing it in the WROUNG hands! Bad speelers of the world unite! :) JJ

Is there a configuration file that I need to make the contest numbers show up with the flarm data in iGlide? I see the traffic, altitude, etc, but I’m getting the ICAO designator instead of the contest number. I believe you have to configure the displays separately from the core, but does...

Hello to everyone on the forum. I'm fairly new to gliding - finished my ABC in Australia in the beginning of this year but I'm originally from Bulgaria where I live at the moment as well. I'm looking to buy my first glider at the moment and noticing a lot of gliders for sale near the 3000 h...

Hi All, I have been having a bit of trouble with my Colibri V1. The date and time seem to be stuck in October 1996, even after GPS reception is established. I believe the only adjustable part of this data is the time zone, which is adjusted correctly. The logger was working perfectly two weeks...

After doing an extensive panel upgrade, I have several instruments for sale: Cambridge 302 DDV and Cambridge 303 Display--$1000.00, including ground shipping within the USA. This includes all the bits to go along with the system--including a GPS antennae, OAT probe, and a serial to USB cable for...

I have a report that recent changes in Seattle's Class B are not reflected in published airspace data (including justsoar.com). The only evidence I can find of a recent change is in the Federal Register which mentions an effective date of Dec...

Sorry if this is boring, but the last discussion pretty much focused on the release / rudder waggle. I can't get to the NTSB report just now, but I seem to recall reading in the report on the OTHER incident (loose hand held radio blocking forward stick movement) that the pilot released, still...

On my 70th birthday I promised to clear out some of my soaring files. I got 20+ years of soaring magazines for anyone or any club who will pay the shipping cost. Any takers ??

I am thinking of buying a Filser ATR-500 comm radio for our club. Does anyone have any experience with it, especially reliability and repair-wise? I like the idea that it just plugs in where the previous ATR-57 was. But I am concerned because the ATR-57 has to go back to the factory for repair...

Two questions: 1. As I load my car for a trip to the airfield for one day of flying, I wonder how the families loaded up for a week or two of competition, back in the day when families went to the competition. From the book about Dick Schreder, written by his daughter (an EXCELLENT book, by the...

I'm a little baffled at the huge difference between my GPS altitude and the pressure altitude when I get up high. Yesterday on the ground, I showed around 10 feet difference between the GPS altitude and the pressure altitude. Up around 17000 feet, the GPS indicates over 1000' higher. I also noted...
