OK, this is a real shot in the dark. To the ASG-29-18 and JS1-18 Benalla pilots who had a chance to thermal and run with the S-H V3s, how do they compare? A tip of the hat to Greiner; most impressive a 10-12 year old design is still scoring well.

Just as a "hypothetical," say one wanted to relocate to Canada for a period of, say, four years or so -- maybe eight, maybe permanently.... And one owns a glider registered in the Experimental, Racing and Exhibition Category. Are there issues bringing this along? Can it be flown there with US...

iSoar is a Mac OS program, not an iOS (iPhone) mobile app yet unfortunately. There are other options for iOS such as SeeYou, etc for flight review (I believe).

I've got an LS8, whose panel outline looks similar to these three on the top of this site: http://www.solairecanada.com/index2.htm Would anyone have an AutoCAD file for this panel outline shape that they'd be willing to share? I've tried DG and the LS group, with no luck. I'm trying to see if I...
