I love this! ... I agree completely
"the most cost effective performance improvement you can make to your
glider is a relief tube."

My wife took some light weight pants that I use for fly fishing and put
snaps into the crotch. So, when I get in, I just unsnap some, fix the
catheter and go fly. Get home and re-do the snaps.

Handy, but didn't it hurt?

I asked my girl friend to insert an appropriate zipper into my favorite
pilot pants. Cheaper than a commercial solution (for me), more work than
a commercial solution (for her), and custom tailored to my personal idea
of comfort.

I bought 2 pair for friends in Germany a few years ago - they are
very happy with them - and I would buy a pair for myself if they
ever become available again -

The most recent issue of AOPA Pilot magazine has an article on the Post
Mills, VT airport including an item on Peeto pants complete with picture
of the maker in his glider. Perhaps you should try to contact him directly.

I use them. They work pretty good, although a wee bit flimsy. Their website
is still up. PeterK
