[RCSE] Glider Bag choices?
I just picked up a new sailplane (3 piece wing) and wanted to know what venders are still selling bags these days. The Bag Lady link I have is not working and I got a message back from Jim bags saying he has sold the business. If you know if any links for bag venders please let me know.

Hi John, We have just started producing our Plane Packs again. I'll have some pictures on the net in the next couple of week and have a couple I can e-mail you if you'd like. The Plane Packs are designed for a 2 or 3 piece wing (you specify when you order) and will hold wing panels up to 65. Please let me know if you'd like more information.

Re: [RCSE] Glider Bag choices?
Separator/cushion is easy. Just cut up a 5$ sleeping bag pad from WallyMart, the light blue ones are good for this. I use these to get two three piece wings in a regular sailplane bag with all the parts separated and padded. Really helps the hangar rash. The snow board bags are great, and they are way more rugged than the sailplane bags. For travel to the field they work well. But, I would not ship in one of these, because your sailplane will not take near the abuse that a snow board will, and the baggage guys have been known to break/damage snow boards. They may think your ship is a snow board - and handle it that way.

These bags, some of which are padded, are for snowboards (single compartment) so you'd have to come up with your own wing panel seperator/cushion but that shouldn't be difficult (foam, bubble wrap, etc.) Some are 165 cm (64) and others are 180 cm (70).

I'm sure they thinks it's a snowboard, plus you give them those nice handles to get a hold of and give it the old heave oh! dh RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] Glider Bag choices
You guys have some pretty pricey taste in bags. I always got along pretty well with a good old black Hefty. Sometimes you gotta be careful when you stuff the remains of your plane in one, the broken off ends of the spars can poke holes in them. happy trails - Rob Glover RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] Glider Bag choices
I get them in the large boxes. I need 'em. Whenever I finish a new plane I fold a hefty bag up neatly and tape it inside the fuselage. That way I have one handy when I need it. I wish I could find a really tiny shovel that would fit in the plane - it would save a trip back to the truck when I plant one really deep. I hate to leave a battery buried in the field, it ain't environmentally kerrect. happy trails - Rob In a message dated 12/16/2004 9:32:59 P.M.
