Variometers as audible AOA indicators by
John
Can you plumb airflow to an audio variometer in such a way that
normally the vario will not see any airflow, but the vario will see
air flow if the angle of attack is increased?

Variometers as audible AOA indicators by

Beeps, squeals and honks. by
Bill Daniels
I can't figure which thread to put this suggestion into, so here's a new
one.
Filling a cockpit with raucous warning noises is very likely to be confusing
in a stressful situation - fortunately, there is another way. Instead of an
electronic noisemaker, use small .wav files burned into EPROM's of...

Hi,
Does anyone have any info regarding the Taos camp at the end of May/

All,
It's been kinda quiet so that must mean soaring season is on it's threshold
