The Rules Committee has determined that we need to have at least 12 confirmed entries if we are to proceed. Furthermore, time is of...

Hello to everyone on the forum. I'm fairly new to gliding - finished my ABC in Australia in the beginning of this year but I'm originally from Bulgaria where I live at the moment as well. I'm looking to buy my first glider at the moment and noticing a lot of gliders for sale near the 3000 h...

Is there a way to filter the airports and waypoints in iGlide so anything farther than 100 miles (or whatever) doesn't show up when you build a task? The lowest filter I can find is 1000 miles. That's just a smidgen farther than I can get in my ASW-19.

Looking at the Discus B's for sale on W&W. Before I drive out to look at them, can anyone tell me what size pilots will fit in them? Don't want to make the trip only to find out I don't fit!

Getting ready for the winter plane projects. The question comes up every year...what to smear over the gel coat. Is there any credible comparison of wax vs PTFE vs Wx? I don't want to hear about avoiding silicones because that seems to be a non-issue since refinishers don't have much of a problem...

I am looking for a wing rigger for my newly acquired glider - ASW 20 Please contact me if you happen to have one for sale. Thanks, Marcin

Does anyone know who took this photo? Or anything else about it. Not sure whether there is a hint in the file name or not? Google search didn't turn up anything of relevance. (Let me know if problems with link.) https://app.box.com/s/mtciqgguzyfli2vl9lx95ag5u7g79hgd Eric B.

Dear Pilots, in my last iteration of soaring I belonged to a soaring safari group that would go to Lone Pine, Bishop, Norton AFB, other fun places. We had a tow plane and would travel. Unfortunately time took it's toll and none of those guys are around anymore. I am looking for Western safari...

Congratulations Keith; well done! Irregardless of the rules and scores, (IMHO) you were the winner of the Club Class Nationals.

Is the stuff in the #2 WX block supposed to be a runny liquid? I was expecting something a little more like the seal material.............I almost poured the whole damn bottle on the top of my wing! Brad

I discovered by looking at some IGC files that several settings in my FLARMCFG.TXT file were apparently not making it into my PowerFlarm Core unit, and several other FLARMCFG.TXT file settings had been changed. Eventually, I found that the place to look for actual PF settings was in the...

During flight, the right rear canopy lifted and the passenger used his hands to hold the canopy in the closed position for the rest of the flight (immediate descent). Upon post flight inspection, we noticed the rod has dropped and the lever handle is disconnected. Has this happened before to...
