Help: Pirat (SZD30) part needed by Ian Johnston
Dear Soaring world, I need, fairly urgently, the connector on the wing centre section which attaches the ailerons: it's flat plate with a threaded rod at one end and two self-aligning bearings. If anyone has any Pirat bits, or has a smashed Pirat, or knows anyone in either of these categories,...

Gary Mitchell is a ****in' Freak!!!! by Brad
Hey Gary, now that's the way to extend your flight time.....and be comfortable! Five hours was my limit in my old Sensor 510 with a Bennet pod (I am dating myself here...:o) Of course I did not drink anything either. This was back in the days of B.C. (Before Camelbacks) Blue skies!

Ipaq and Sunglasses by Ray Lovinggood
I've had to replace a balky Compaq Aero 1520, running Glide Navigator II with an Ipaq. I was worried about the readability of the color screen vs. the gray scale of the Aero. The newer Ipaq is a 3955. I decided to go for an Ipaq rather than another Aero, like a 1550, because: 1. The Ipaq was...

Old Peschges VP-3 Question by Wayne Paul
I have a VP-3, firmware version 45.1P, installed in my HP-14. My library contains two different VP-3 manuals. One manual is obviously for a later model then mine; however, the earlier manual may also be more modern than my VP-3. Both manuals have a series performance item which are entered in...

Hi guys, I have been thinking about starting to fly gliders (I have previously flown R/C and Paragliders). I am based in the Southern London suburbs, Kenley is only about 15 mins from me, but they do not fly over the weekends from what I can tell, so for a person who works Mon-Fri this makes it...

Fatal accident near Wenatchee, WA by [email protected]
Surprisingly no one has posted this before now. There is a high plateau just north of the airport. A basalt cliff drops several hundred feet to the valley (and airport) below. Most soaring is done on the plateau. There is a temptation to try to squirt over the rim if you get low, even though there...
