    Author: SAPurdieLocation: SussexSubject: Re: Wing Options for heavy Pilots - XC /Thermalling usePosted: Wed May 20, 2026 5:54 UTC (GMT 0)Topic Replies: 1 The Ozone Swiftmax does perform as well or better than many a solo EN-B. Only the Mk1 was available in 38 m^2, which would be close to your optimal size. They should still be present in the used market. The current model is only available as a 41 m^2, which would require you to carry food for[…]

    Author: springyuSubject: Re: Which flying gloves for the winterPosted: Wed May 20, 2026 5:35 UTC (GMT 0)Topic Replies: 46 I totally agree that mittens will definitely reduce finger sensitivity. This is what I usually do in winter: I use mittens over my brake lines because they provide enough room for movement. When the weather is extremely cold, I also wear a thin pair of finger liner gloves underneath. This combination keeps me warm enough while still letting me feel the[…]

  • Re: Pilot From Ger Wants To Visit UK In July. Advice appreciated :: Europe -- SAPurdie< 20 May 2026 | 7:26 am

    Author: SAPurdieLocation: SussexSubject: Re: Pilot From Ger Wants To Visit UK In July. Advice appreciatedPosted: Wed May 20, 2026 5:26 UTC (GMT 0)Topic Replies: 6 The BHPA do already offer day membership and three month membership, which could readily be tweaked to better suit this context. Also, many UK clubs operate a Nelson's telescope approach to visiting pilots, but that would be under the radar. The reason membership is required is that the BHPA 3rd party insurance is the gold[…]

I assume I can't change the distance in a minute parameter? It was quite windy so I was just sat in the same spot for a while enjoying the view so it must've thought I landed! [ goto post ]

    Re: Gaggle reduction? :: Events & Comps -- Eduardo Author: EduardoLocation: Buenos Aires, ArgentinaSubject: Re: Gaggle reduction?Posted: Tue May 19, 2026 19:43 UTC (GMT 0)Topic Replies: 10 The best solution for strong gaggle reduction is a 50 pilot comp. Period. At least if we are still doing races. All the ideas around can be very good, but they somehow destroy the concept of a race. Actually leading points in some way also alter the concept of a race, as the first in goal is not always the winner. And[…]

    Author: krisholubLocation: United StatesSubject: Re: Finally happening? Drone towingPosted: Tue May 19, 2026 19:15 UTC (GMT 0)Topic Replies: 67 I think SIV is the killer app for drone towing because now you dont need a fast boat, a big lake with lakeside launches, or tons of gas. Opens up a ton of locations which has good locations weather and logistics wise and will be cheaper than a boat tow._________________I teach acro and SIV and publish free content on youtube, instagram,[…]
