others.

worked. I recently drove from Atlanta up to the Sequatchie Valley in
TN. This included highway...

Mounting GPS/antenna on Carbon panels by
Anthony McNicholas
The Volkslogger manual states that 'During installation,
assure that the integral antenna has a clear view of
the sky and is not shielded by metal or carbon fiber
parts.' (there is no similar comment in the Colibri
version 3.0 manual.)
Has anyone with GPS units mounted on carbon panels

LS-4A Turbulator tape question by
Joe Lacour
I'm sanding on my LS-4A wings and was wondering several things.
Does properly placed ZZ Tape noticeably reduce the high speed drag of
an LS-4A? Probably does.
Does anyone know the proper location of ZZ Tape on the wings?
If it is in the right spot and works, I'll sand around it. If it is
not in...

Does everyone teach this way? by
Dancebert
Does everbody teach soaring the same way? If so, excuse me while I
step outside and scream.
I've had 24 flights with 4 different instructors at two different
schools. (I switched schools quickly after realizing that there are
some places where humans were not meant to be in August) ...

Kevin Neave
Hi folks,
In order to get the best performance from the gliders
we fly we need the C of G near the aft limit.
How much difference does this actually make?
Or is it just perception ?
For example, If I add 60kgs of ballast to my Discus,

"Hands off" decent from altitude with spoilers? by
MHende6388
I was taught during wave training that all sailplanes, properly trimmed, when
you let go of the controls, will seek a gentle banked circle to one direction
and maintain that attitude, even in light turbulence.
There must be great variation from one a/c to the next with varied CG and...

Weight shift gliders by
Mark James Boyd
I had a chance to fly a 737 sim with the folks from
microsoft flight simulator dev group.
I asked them why the sim has roll stability (if the
plane is left in a bank, it magically rolls straight

Creating MPGs for the web by
Mark James Boyd
I have some mini-DV footage of a 2-33 doing a perfect

Then we can put it up on our website.
Does anyone have the equipment to do this (from mini DV,
Hi-8, SVHS, or VHS)? I'd happily send you the tape :-)

ASW 24&27 rear fuselarge vents? by
Udo Rumpf
Hi all,
to day I checked, what I thought was the rear exhaust vent of the ASW24.
I tried, after removing the rudder, insert a thin wire past the tail wheel fender.
I could not get this thin flexible wire through.
I inserted a long vacuum hose from the cockpit side, to the very end of the tail
