I respectfully agree. Not only great concern to possible casualties, but their lawyers too. :-) I am not in Aviation industry, so every mail I get is a learning experience. Landing on the moon require collective efforts, just about any solution in that project produce one or more new problem. I

Ollie; Some of what you stated is true but I'll correct what isn't. Yes, Spyder Foam was developed by Dow to the specifications of windsurfer board makers. Consequently the billet size is 2'X10' X5 1/2". Yes it's called Surfboard Foam in the industry and the name was changed to Spyder Foam

It would be more useful (if not useless) integrated with a digital elevation sensor and a uP to work out the Trigo for exact altitude, without having to stay vertical under the target. YK Chan - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, September

Hi All, I'm wondering if anyone can help my friend who is looking for some old sailplane plans.  Here is a copy of his note to me.  Please response directly to him. I am looking for the article about the Schweizer TG-2 sailplane in the April 1984 issue of MAN. I would like to read the article a

Rich is absolutely right about all this! I travel to Europe fairly often and have found what he said to be true most of the time. You can buy almost anything here at home for a lot less than it would actually cost you to buy it over there! AND you are covered by shipping insurance, etc. Wit

Hello everybody We are a group of aeromodellers who fly slope in Madrid - Spain. This very afternoon we have broken a 2,5 sailplane in a midair collision while practicing aerobatics. The problem is that the ship is a Robbe one, and the fuselage is made of Plura, This seems to be an special ty
