Hi John, Mark Fisher taught me: Design your own on the computer, print on overhead sheet on a laser printer. Spray paint printed side with white paint and apply double sided tape - voila! These stickers are even solvent proof; you could even use custom colors... ..

A second refutation posted: Red Baron says... 8:22am Wed 31 Aug 11 (Z) The headline makes it sound as if the pilot was in trouble and crashed. I agree that the glider made a landing in a field, no doubt because the pilot could not find any rising thermals to gain height. Safe and controlled landing by the look of the picture. The photographer was just being alarmist in stating the distances to the nearest houses perhaps to get a non-event into the paper. - Original Message - From: tom claffey To: Discussion of issues relating to Soaring in Australia.

The farmers aren't always the problem. A few more newspaper articles like that and there'll be somebody calling for the banning of gliders being flown near any population areas.

Re: [Aus-soaring] GPS vs pressure altitude.
OK I've got 4 flights done in WA in summer thanks to John Orton all with colibris. Any Volkslogger or Cambridge 302A files? Or Flarms? So far good agreement with my article on the later FRs. Early ones had terrible GPS receivers and/or lots of flitering on the GPS altitude.
