The length of the tire stem valve on the main gear of my LS-3 is too short for the fill valve from my compressor to open it. The tire hub prevents the fill valve from pressing down far enough to open the stem valve. The short stem valve appears by design so it can clear the landing gear linkages as...

I have been looking at a LX4000 (with latest updates) with garmin 90 but I have no idea of its current value. I could not find any advertised on any of the usual sale sites, could someone give an estimate and or its equals from other manufacturers. gary

There does not seem to be a lot ot these ships on the used market so it's difficult to get price history. I would appreciate your input as to a fair market value for a DG-100 with basic insturments, older radio and a homemade trailer. Thanks all!

Please advise a hapless victim of software technology. My PC uses Windows XP. How can I validate an igc file ? I can find no way to open a DOS window. With vali-lxn.exe installed, I can tell it to run vali-lxn on a named file. Apparently it does so; I get a second or so of a blue window as it...

I cannot get a valid OLC flight out of my SN-10b. I purchased the glider a few months ago, have flown a few flights and all are invalid on OLC. Prior to download the SN-10 security routine runs and approves the file. OLC tells me the file error message on his end says Signature Missmatch and he...

Are tows still available at Val Air, including weekdays? Their phone line is disconnected, Web site says it is closed but tows are available for private owners and I can still see OLC entries from there. I am considering visiting there next week so any info will be appreciated. Ramy

Looking to get a glider add on rating through a commercial school to do it quickly. Nothing near by me suits this so I must travel. Reading through this forum I could use some pointers of where to train. Planning on taking a week of vacation, buying airline tickets for the family so I need...

Does anyone know of any flight schools that are approved for VA Assistance for Glider Ratings? I have a private power student that has some VA money available for additional ratings. He would like to add a glider Ratings once he completes his private certificate. If we can't find a VA approved...

I know there was a thread about this awhile ago, but I know there are at least a few people with a V7/Oudie/Nano setup. I just bought everything I need from Cumulus (great service BTW), and I'm stuck in my house fiddling with it until soaring season starts. I realize these things are very flexible...

Considering The LX V7, Nano, and Oudie combination, but have a few concerns I haven't been able to find the answers to. Can the Nano be placed under the panel and left there? It seems you have to access it to turn it on and get the log file, however I've been told ConnectMe on the Oudie can get...

Hi, I have a V7 vario connected to an Oz FLARM and HX4700 PDA. All devices get powered from V7. If the PDA is not 100% charged, the V7 resets in flight. When it happens, FLARM restarts and the program that runs on the PDA looses GPS signal. Usually the program comes back as soon the FLARM...

Has anyone else had an issue with a V7 freezing in place for a few seconds? The sound cuts out at the same with the data being display but not changing. My Clearnav vario is still working so I do not think it is an air issue.

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...

If anyone is at Aero 2015 please confirm whether the V3 is 15-18M or 18-21M? And please include the wing area for each span configuration. The Facebook picture may be misleading but it sure looks like the V3 wing cord is narrow when compared to others. Thanks.

Just curious after it missed the last convention.

Is the Ventus 2c manual available in PDF format? I'll be the new owner of one in about a month and would like to familiarize myself with the contests. I don't believe the factory has a soft version, perhaps someone has scanned it? -ted/2NO

What a prospective buyer should look for? Rust? damaging mildew? dry rot on trailer tires? What else?

Just got a V2. Hoping to get WP installed on it. Yes, I read 711's posts. Where is support for the PNA itself? Mine does not recognize, or show any indication of the SD card. Thx, Tim
