The $30.00 fee represents a massive 50% increase!
Most clubs will just add it to the price of the AEI, for Aero-tow clubs this
represents about 5%,
but I feel for the winch launch clubs, this fee makes up a large piece of

Last time I checked neither the product or the application for the smart phone
were available in Oz, has this changed?
Have you seen the MotionX GPS application? If you do most of your flying within

The origins of the photo and the error in the SMH were discussed
on Saturday, you may also be aware that
we use it in our club promotional brochure. Paul has asked me post the
attached to set the record straight about
the use of the photo.

Ben Stubbs is a travel writer who lives in Cooma and approached us
wanting to do a story on Gliding as a travel destination, we checked him
out and agreed. He spent two days with our club, on the first the weather
was not suitable for passenger flying so he interviewed members and took
photos;
I agree; congratulations to the new editors and contributors.

Has anyone in the group used or know of anyone who has used any
of the iGlide applications? They look like just another software package the
competes with SeeYou, XCsoar etc designed for Apple hardware, to date they
have not been rated by users.

Hi,
Following the notification of this year's Bunyan Wave Camp on Page 43 of
