In Love With Flying - Ken Ford by [email protected]
Hello pilots. My father, who spent 50 years flying gliders and light aircraft, has written and self-published a nice little book about his years in the air. He's disappointed with the anemic sales of the book at the moment and i thought that maybe the soaring community at large might know of small...

In memory of General Bob Knauff by [email protected]
We did not know Bob for very long, a few years, not nearly long enough. But I think Rose captured what we, Bob, I and all glider pilots share in this short story: " Rose wrote: "The first time you set foot in Aguila Arizona some people say "What would anybody be doing here? " Unless you're a...

In search of drier trailers by None[_2_]
Do you have electricity at your trailer? There is a device called Dampp-Chaser that is used inside pianos to keep them from soaking up humidity. It is a long rod that is heated electrically and will elevate temperature enough to keep a piano dry (but not too dry). Two or three of these...

In search of drier trailers by Martin Gregorie[_5_]
I have a box trailer with an aluminium skin. It keeps the glider pretty dry, but in condensing conditions I do sometimes notice that the glider skin feels damp first thing in the morning. I'd really like to prevent this if possible. The main possibilities seem to be: - fit passive ventilators -...

In wave, in blue hole at cloud level, hole closes, in IMC, then what? by son_of_flubber
So I'm flying in a blue hole in wave lift of 5 m/s, trimmed to 50 knots, in clear air with a cloud layer upwind and downwind, cloud top above and cloud base below. Suddenly I find myself in IMC. What are my options? My glider is capable of benign spiral. I open the spoilers, (already trimmed to...
