I'm purchasing a glider with the intention of making it available to the club and I need to make a simple lease-back agreement with the club. Searching the internet for samples I came up with some 10-page documents that are way overkill. Anybody got a lease-back agreement they'd be willing to...

Hi Has anyone fitted these seals? I ordered them for our Ventus but am having problems figuring out how the bottom seals work. A photo would be great! I have the teflon tape but 2mm glue line to the wing seems a little small. I'm assuming "Falzband" means the narrowmylar tape and that it should...

Here is a message I received about the glider operation at Gardner Airport near Arcadia, Florida. Pat and Harriet were inducted into the SSA Hall of Fame at last year's SSA convention. They began a commercial gliderport in Ohio, nearly 40 years ago, and moved to Florida, probably 30 years...

Hi, A few months ago I started selling the new RAM powered cradles. They are nice cradles, but it is not ideal that the power/data connector is located on the bottom of the cradle. The Goddard team has just helped me solve that problem. They have determined that they can re-route the...

I'm re-building a winch and would like to find a really cheap radio that can at least receive on 123.5 that I can mount in the cab. If you have something in a closet or garage that you'd be willing to part with for not too much $$, please send me an e-mail. I don't care if it's an older crystal...

Very nice mid-winter threads on spinning gliders. I'll bet a lot of people will be a bit more careful this spring.

I don't need much encouragement to fly down to big bend country so decided to attend the grand opening of the newly repaved runway 3/21 at Marfa, Texas this afternoon. Judging by the extremely large turnout, as a percentage of the local population, Marfa Gliders and the Marfa Airport have...

I want to apologize to anyone I offended with my "Dog Whistle" remark about the Silent jet glider. I have long held a disparaging view of small turbines based largely on their huge cost, noise level, awful specific fuel economy and short lifespan. There's also the safety issue of a compressor...
