Hi gang, I have the following items for sale: M&H oxygen setup -CFF480 tank (American valve) and EDS pulse demand (1st gen) system. Includes tank, EDS unit, mask, extra tubing, and filler line. Near mint condition, although due for a new hydro test (guarantee pass). -$500 including shipping...

Interesting article about Duke engineers applying their passive, engineered material light/sound cloaking techniques to water, theoretically (substantially) reducing the amount of drag generated by a boat's hull by 'tricking' the surrounding water into standing...

This July, 11-17, there will be a NASA sponsored green flight challenge involving alternative fueled motorgliders with a $1.65million prize at the Sonoma Co airport in Sonoma, CA. It might be a good day to try a 320km out and return from Sonoma if you have an Electro-Taurus, etc (I think it needs...

I won't be, so can you please leave me as custodian/guardian of your glider? It would really help me enjoy the last 5 months of civilization, and from the post-rapture weather predictions I've read it sounds like the thermals will be GREAT! I'd really like to get the paperwork settled before...

Looking to give my 12-year-old niece a book about learning to fly gliders, prior to her starting lessons this summer. Any thoughts on the most appropriate/accessible book for someone her age? Thanks-- What country are you in? I've seen US-centric and UK-centric material recommended, but we...

....can now be done year round on Condor since a SoCal scenery/ landscape has just been released. http://secure.simmarket.com/taburet-sw-california-san-diego-photorealistic-for-condor.phtml It's a high res payware scenery, with a lower res freebie on it's way out. Here is a thread about it for...

Tomorrow when I have more time I will post my synopsis on the subject. Paul As promised (warned? but then encouraged...) here is my exhaust project so far, which I felt I should post to it's own thread to not hijack the OP's thread looking for more advice on other subjects... Dick...

My next stupid question... how do I remove all elements of SeeYou from my notebook? I've gone into the control panel and removed the program. Even went into my disk and removed it there, then rebooted. I've looked up the help log on the subject and it wasn't particularly helpful (can't find SeeYou...

Anyone out there get this to work properly? I've got my 310 and computer on the same COM/baud... even got them to connect (COM connection, not headset). Sorta got it to work with my 3.12 installation (accepted the NMEA stream from Condor and thought it was in Slovenia...), but corrupted it in the...

Hi All, I think my installation of SYM I'm using on my 310 is corrupted. My update privileges ended as of March of this year, so I can't just download a new one from Naviter. Does anyone have an archived copy of the SYM download from last March or around thereabouts? TIA, -Paul

Well, sorta... it's a motorglider. While VR flying is nothing new, this is one of the cutest little FPV cockpits I've seen yet, (some functioning instruments & moving stick!) in the virtual pilot scene, enjoy... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=va0vEY8CKVc&feature=related -Paul

More on the subject of the limitations of human physiology... Just ran across this great little segment of a BBC show called Horizon, on The McGurk Effect and thought it went nicely with the counting test and optical effects, but thought it deserved it's own thread. Watch your ears lie, despite...

Yesterday at Urs's FLARM presentation at the PASCO seminar, he demonstrated some of the the fallibility of the human eye/visual recognition system with a few videos, which were really ....eye opening. Hopefully a recorded (and edited, since it almost spiraled into a ras debate a few times...)...

Looking to get in touch with an ASW 20 driver named Conrad Gerte in Germany. I have an email for him and we were in communication for a bit, but I now get returned mail message saying he has too many messages on the server when I use it. If anyone here knows him, if you could pass along a message...

Anybody know what kind of glider is in this pic? http://picasaweb.google.com/104195682308066635043/Szeged2010WGCVisitor#5501525495077532370 #46 of this set: http://picasaweb.google.com/104195682308066635043/Szeged2010WGCVisitor# The only ships I know of with dihedral on the T-tail is the...
