Please be careful out there. I just got an earful from a fighter pilot who said he had an 'encounter' with a glider over the Pahranagat valley tuesday afternoon. That's a VERY busy corridor Monday through Friday.

Just noticed the Region 6 North contest going on at the moment and wondered how they work the handicaps for a combined 15M $ STD Class contest. It appears as though all the 15M are handicaped at 1.0 and the Std at something else. How is it done officially? Bob

I just received my HAiCOM HI-303III CF Card GPS and can not get WinPilot, running on my iPAQ 3950, to recognize it. I installed software on the iPAQ that shows me the gps is working and I can see my position. I've used a Garmin 12xl with cable hookups in the past with no problem. Does anyone have...

Firewall aft. Can be a salvage, rebuildable project. Have IO 540 300 hp, now need something to put it on. Even an older 180 or 182 which now needs love and care would work. Email me and let me know what ya have. Thanks, Tom Kelley Email .

I see that pricing is available for a self-launch capable 304S from HPH but- what system are they using, Jet or Solo? The pricing is not yet available for a turbo model alone Pricing is available for jet-sustainer No mention of the actual mechanics are made, they must know though, as there is an...

Hi, NK has put the latest version of the ClearNav manual and other reference documents on their web site he http://www.nkhome.com/support/pdfs.html#Soaring The manual is not complete. I'd estimate that it is more than half done. Good Soaring,

A guy flying in our club has the New Technologies/Easybox Flight recorder from an Italian company, he has a diamond flight he needs to validate but can't seem to figure out how to download it from the flight recorder using an IGC shell executable. There is a SD card reader with a USB port to hook a...

Jeff Smith "PT" of the Tuscon Soaring Club has a nice report about his first contest experience, at Parowan. He allowed me to post it in the ASA forum. Thanks Jeff! Hope to see you at PR9 again next year. http://tinyurl.com/5o9uvf

We've been using a Tost reel internal to the towplane (PA-25) for several years now, and are delighted with the overall improvement in operational efficiency and safety. However, we've also had over a dozen breaks in the Tost-supplied rope/cable, always right where it enters the "slug" that...

Is the DUAT aviation weather resource of any use for a glider pilot to get weather information useful to a soaring forecast? Is it worth the trouble - is there anything there that cannot be found elsewhere on the net? Can you easily get current doppler/weather radar images & satellite images with...

Dear Group, While I am the only soaring pilot at my local field (KLUM), the occasional glider drops in when the lift gives out. A dozen years ago I had formed a little club, and we used the 50-ft grass overruns and the 100-ft-wide grass margins of the runway continually, to avoid conflicts with...

I live in the Los Angeles area, have a private pilots license and I want to earn my soaring stamp or whatever it's called. Can anyone recommend a soaring club? I looked at Great Western Soaring in Llana, CA. It's a great place to fly, Fred Robinson is a special person, but I don't think they...
