GBSC BLOG

A PDF version of the Cambridge vario manual installed in the L-33 has been added to the website.  Members=>Fleet Status and Aircraft Manuals.  Click on L-33 link at far right.

There is a new link to the LoggerStation page on the members-only page.  Note that the link takes you to the practice page.  Please read the directions for guidance to the actual LoggerStation functions.

Pierre L’Heureux has created instructions for making our tow ropes, adapters, and weak links.  They are posted as above.  They are in PDF format.

Dave Zlotek’s briefing on lift and Stuart Smith’s briefing on weather have been added to the Members=>Ops/Safety Docs Page.  Look on the right side of the page.

A new link has been added to the menu in the members-only section of the website.  If you click on the [Billing/Flights] link you will be shown your current list of tow heights and flights.  This data comes from Ken Flaton’s new automated LoggerStation billing/logging system.

Briefings from the 2011 Annual General Meeting have been posted to Members=>Ops/Safety Docs.  You will need member – only access to view financial information.

Thanks to Tom Witkin, I have found an error in the photo posting script.  Anyone who has posted a personal photo recently, will probably notice that their photo is missing from the link under their name in the club roster.  If you post your photos now, the script will work properly and your photo will appear when you click on your name.

Website changes in work for the coming season.  If anyone sees any old links or pages that need updating, notify the webmaster.  Thanks.
