I'm looking for the flight manual for LS1, more specifically the LS1-d. All I could find was LS1-f. Could anyone provide me this manual? (German/English)

Does anyone have experience and can recommend Becker radio (6201) set up to allow for both use of a boom mic / speaker phone and headset connections? I have the boom / mic speaker working well but cannot transmit / receive in the headset. Thanks. Jeff R.

Today I received a an email disguised as from Shempp Hirth with a PDF attached invoice. Although I wish I had placed a large order for a new glider I unfortunately have not. The email copied below. REMINDER – Request for Payment INV 9660145 – 10/01/18 - $3111.63 INV 9144758 – 10/02/18 -...

Does anybody know a source for the suction mounted spherical compass similar to the old "Luft" brand units? Roy

Landed out in a very soft dirt field during the Region 8 contest, and had so much dirt in my gear well and glider, that I spent the next 3 hours that evening vacuming and blowing it out. Still don't have it all out. The -19 and -20 gliders don't have the fully sealed gear box that the newer ships...

Are most of these glider tow plane mid-airs in the landing or approach to pattern?

I am looking at buying a used glider located near Philly in NJ. Does anyone have a recommendation?

Just bought a used CAI 302 from W and Wh; unfortunately many accessories are missing incl. the CD. I have installed and run the 300 support program, and configured the 302 for my PIK 20E. Turn on does the usual start routine, but settles with +2kts indicated. Any ideas? John Firth ( old but no...

Anyone have this issue - the cruise/climb switch on my LX5000 does not change the setting any more (vario stuck in cruise), the auto settings do not work. The switch itself is working so this has to be a software issue. Any ideas on how to fix it.

Here are a few to get you started; - lifting streams of light - fingers bold and brave fulfill - my giddy hearts delight - Gear is down and locked - air speed, traffic, spoilers, wind - no going around

Hi there, I'm not a glider pilot but I am a PhD student in meteorology. I study how clouds form and it seems that the glider community has a lot of knowledge in that area. There is one article in particular I am seeking that may be directly related to my research. I can't find it for free and I...

Very interesting to see Chip Garner in the 15m Duck Hawk winning the day in what appears to be relatively weak conditions. Span-limited in comparison to many of the ships with longer legs, he was nearly 10% faster in raw speed than KS, who is leading in a Duo. Gary Osoba

Congratulations to Matt Seymour who won the Region 3 Sports Class. This nice young man won flying his grandfather's KA-6E using just a map and a round "whiz wheel" glide computer. This is what glider racing should be more about. As Rick Walters said- It's not what you brung- It's how it's...

Does anyone have experience with buying a used sailplane and getting a new special airworthiness certificate and operational limitations letter from the Atlanta FSDO? If so i would appreciate a chance to talk with you and/or get a copy of the operational limitations you were issued. You can call...
