I find this is really valuable when far out on course and you need to contact your home field, or when you're close to home...

"High Temp" Tape? by Blue Whale
Is there a tape out there for sealing gaps on metal sailplanes that doesn't turn into a sticky mess after exposure to the sun and heat? Would be nice to have a somewhat permanent solution that only needs to be replaced a few times a year on gliders that sit outside assembled for the season.
