So I just picked up a new to me Libelle (S/N 13), and the belts are pretty old. I'd like to get them re-webbed. Anyone have a good suggestion on where to go for this service? Thanks Peter

I have the VL Manager 4.0 (English Version) as of several years ago. I finally gave up as although the program itself was in English, the "help" file was in German. I have tried Googling but have gotten nowhere. Yes, I have tried and paid for See You but it's documentation is awful IMHO so I am...

Is there any first person accounts of Grosse's 1972 flight from Lubek to Biarritz? Thanks for the help. 2C

The FAA posts the relevant rules and overview http://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/ifim/airspace/ but there must be some good stories. It would have been easy (from a lift and wind perspective) for a XC pilot to cross over and back today in Vermont. It must be tempting.

I discovered that there are no airports south of Cedar City, about 37 degrees. I have checked all of the US airspace files. Does anyone know where I can get more complete airspace files? Thanks, Tom

Did anyone experience problems with DITTEL KRT2 XCVR installation and MIC/INTERCOM setup in motorized two-seaters? Willy

Just back from the 15 m Nationals, I want to thank Rex, Noelle, Ben and Nick Mayes for a wonderful job putting on a well-organized, fun and challenging contest. As someone new to Montague I'd also like to thank CD Dale Bush for keeping us safe while pushing us (or at least pushing me). Hope to...

Anybody have a suggestion for how to easily get at the valve stem on an ASK-21 main wheel without dropping the shroud? Would like to make checking the pressure part of our club's daily routine, but hard to enforce if we have to unscrew the main gear fairing every time. Thanks...

Hello. I have a CAI 302 with a problem. During a flight yesterday it turned the volume to max by itself - and there is no way to turn it down again. It had the problem 1 year ago also. I send it to repair, but when it got to the repair shop the problem had gone away, so nothing was fixed. I do...

So I am relatively new to my Cambridge model 20, and I tried submitting the trace from the logger to the OLC. I followed the instructions on the clear nav page using their converter tool, but still got the red V. Anyone else have the same issue or have an idea where I went wrong? Thanks Peter

Hi, Has anybody ever succeeded with updating V7 firmware from a PDA, a HX4700 specifically? When I try it, the "Update" button does not become active. I've tried all 4 COM ports with all speeds, including the one suggested in the manual: 115200. When flying, I have V7 connected to an OzFLARM...

Today's weather in Moriarty wasn't much for long flights but my day headed in a different direction anyway. Today I completed my checkout in my new (to me) Pipistrel Sinus 912, a 15 meter touring motorglider, registered Experimental, Exhibition and Racing. After getting my logbook endorsed, I...

Late April/ Early May I will have an empty towball from the middle of USA to Northern California. Mid May I will have an empty towball from California to pretty much anywhere else in the USA. Let me help you get that new glider in time for the season to start. Don't waste your vacation days pulling...

You cannot teach safety in paragraph-long sound bites. Unlike a high percentage of glider pilots, if you want to be a safe pilot, you need to educate yourself. How many launching emergencies are there? All pilots automatically think of rope breaks. Believe it or not, 41 emergencies are listed,...

Our club 1-34 lives outside, and during heavy rains will accumulate some water in the fuselage. There appear to be no drain holes in the bottom of the fuselage. Is there supposed to be a drain in there? If not is there an approved method of adding these? Peter

I have a older model Becker radio with 5 presets. The presets do not hold the memory between use and my guess is the backup internal battery is dead. Does anyone know where i can get the battery and how difficult is it to install on this radio. Yes I have called Becker and they would like me to...

I have an early model Oudie 1, and lately the internal GPS has been dropping out on me. Is anyone else experiencing intermittent GPS drop outs? I suspect that it may be heat related, but I wanted to see if anyone else is having similar problems. The last few times this has happened it was rather...
