A Smart Way to Recover a Glider Pilot Hanging Among Trees by Tom BravoMike
An early-season accident in Germany yesterday (Feb. 27, 2021), with a happy outcome: an ASK-21 ends up hanging among trees close to the Burg Feuerstein Airfield (Bayern); no injuries to the pilot reported. I like the way the rope is used to secure the pilot by recovery. Watch the...

Vintage Pfieffer trailers? by [email protected]
To anyone whom can help, I just acquired a DG101g a few weeks ago, and when the a-hole left, he did not give me the keys. When asked he said he put them in the front of the trailer, but nothing there, and claims they are not in his pockets. So after looking at the glider, I closed the back door...

TE probes? by soaringjac
Might be a dumb question, but can you just purchase any old TE prob and throw it in your glider or does it have to be calibrated to your specific glider?

L33 Hydraulic Conversion ANQ (Another Noob Question) by Shaun Wheeler
Now that it's passed it's annual I'm curious if there's a conversion kit for hydraulic brakes? Has anybody in the US done one? I see at least two kits (not aircraft specific) on W&W from Tost but haven't come up with much else. If there's already an approved EASA version of this it'd really be...

K6 rs232 to bluetooth by PCool
Is this hardware anything different from what I can find googling "rs232 to bluetooth" ? There are similar products way much cheaper around now. We are testing the eBay stuff for 45 euro and so far it does its work. Moreover, the K6 has got no batteries and need external power supply. It doesn't...
