Glider is EASA approved, instruments are EASA standard.
For safety reasons, we don't allow pilots to self launch when hiring a

Hello all
I noticed that the subject of ASI labelling on new gliders is coming up
every few months or so.
To put members of this newsgroup at ease it should be said that Schleicher
already complies
with the requirement after Ian Mc Phee made a corresponding suggestion some
time ago.

Now here is an interesting question: Does anyone find a Vne that high
at all useful?
It is my understanding that it is a result of a design requirement
not to exceed Vne in a 30 degree dive with full brake at gross
weightwhich is driven by the requirement to do a
recovery
Why do we have the competition licence? It used to be the Silver badge was the
necessary qualification. What does the competition licence add to safety or
anything else?

There is another V speed above Vne that a qualified test pilot is allowed to
fly the aircraft to during testing.
Due to a very slow internet I am unable to find the authoritive source, but it
is out there.

Hi all,
The FAI Competition Licence is a requirement for claiming FAI records, and
badges and certificates above a certain level. This is not a GFA decision and
there is nothing GFA can do about it. The competition licence – in this
respect - is not a GFA matter.
The decision to
Peter,
I am amazed that you again raise this hoary old topic. In fact it is an “old
whore” topic. I worked in the gold mining industry (exploration), for some
time and the big question then was” how do you tell the real thing from the

There is already a movement within gliding in Europe to produce an F1 like
component in order to get TV promotion with a proposed new race series called
Skyrace World Cup. I think the GFA isn't involved at present and as yet no
Australian round has been indicated, but hopefully one of the
Here's the relevant part of CS22 regarding airspeed indicators:
