Yeah, it's a bit on the warm side back here in the Mid Atlantic - 105 in DC today. Think we've pumped enough life-giving CO2 into the atmosphere at this point? Here's where you and Davis Straub are both pushing the same propaganda. He and you were both indoctrinated to believe what you believe. Dav...

Davis Straub, deserves more publicity.

Davis Straub - 2012/06/28 19:52:09 I have a forum and it has been extremely active lately as we discuss Jim Rooney's essays on landing. Tad How would anyone who isn't a registered member and hasn't yet been banned for exposing you as the stupid lying scumbag you are know? You locked it down to the ...

Davis Straub - 2012/06/27 23:48:20 That was a bloody good joke on my part. Drier humor than even you Brits are used to I'd imagine. Mike Lake - 2012/06/28 03:33:32 Sorry, I still didn't get the bit about you being from the colonies but I appreciate any attempt at humour, especially the dry stuff. T...

Frightened by the concept. D. Convinced that they know what they're talking about. 'All the above' on Straub, Gaar and...

Only if he's forgotten his password - and there's an "I forgot my password" line he can click on. To date I've only banned spammers and deactivated half a dozen screen names of entities which pretty obviously weren't glider people. And the latter folk can easily reactivate themselves. My ...

Be sure you understand three-ring theory before you build one. But if you're building a barrel release make sure you understand NOTHING about second class lever theory - just always use a bent pin 'cause that's what everybody else does. 10-4 brother.. copy that.. But as a nation of sheep that enjoy...

first questions: with straight pin is the necessary force to pull in high load configuration, not stronger than with a bent one as the contact with the barrel is all the length ? Where can we buy straight pin ? Do you sell your release or do we have to make a copy ? Hi Deltaman, If the fishmonger d...

Tad, I've spent some more time admiring the all work you've done toward a safer, more reliable tow release system. The picture documentation alone must have cost you many hours of work. What a shame this work it is so misunderstood, so misrepresented and ultimately suppressed by some very small mind...

Put a gun to my head and I would choose Mary Ann! The 'debate' (that hasn't happened) isn't about paper or plastic but the difference between freedom and slavery. Forgive my poor communication skills for not yet getting that point across. You are traveling again and you haven't answered, Choice: nak...
