I was looking for a good way to determine when my chute would need a repack and came across this. Always thought that it would be good if the rigger provided the date when the re-rig would be required but I don't see it on my card. Walt http://www.skydiveorange.com/wenamidoo.aspx

Looks like Region 6 South is turning out to be a horse race in all divisions. As a matter of fact, maybe if they rented some horses...........

I was clearing the memory on my Volkslogger prior to flight, and suddenly the display froze in mid-count. Turned it off, and had no display at all when power was restored. Is my Volklogger a paperweight, or is there a remedy someone knows of? Besides shipping it to Garrecht, that is… -John

Hi Guys - I arrived in Hobbs Friday afternoon after driving 2,222 miles. Since I've only flown the Antares once since the Seniors in March (564km from Sterling MA up to Belvidere VT and return) I wanted to get in a decent flight and knock some rust off. Perhaps you will find this...

Working on my glider last night, and noticed that my static lines seem to be more hazy than the others. It looks like there is a very fine film of moisture on the tubing. I'm going to be putting in moisture/ filter traps on the lines, but before I do that, is there a recommended way of drying them...

Hi, I sell many of Derek Piggott's wonderful published soaring books from my web site - which I purchase from a publisher in the U.K. Now I have a request for his booklet "Ground Launches". I suspect that it is self published. I'd like to contact him directly. Can anyone supply his e-mail...

Okay, so most of you probably see others all the time, but I don't! On Saturday I was coming back to my airport (Jean, 0L7) when I spotted another glider near the golf course south of Primm, NV. I was really jazzed to note that it wasn't a Jean glider! A little later I got in touch with him on...

Hi all, I'm planning a trip next summer to the USA from Australia, from May through September, and I'm planning on buying a glider before I get here and having a friend keep it for me until I arrive, then shipping it out of the US at the end of the trip. I already have a specific glider in mind....

Hi all, Given that down the track I will need to refinish my wings, I am curious about the process. I understand that LS/DG will not provide profile information to allow accurate reprofiling of the wings. Is it standard practice to just reinstate the profile that the wing had prior to refinish?...
