The problem is Windows 8 and Windows 10. Starting with Windows 8,
Microsoft invalidated the driver for the USB chipset found in older
6015/20/30/40. There is nothing wrong with the driver, they just invalidated it.
The following link is for an unrelated product but the workaround resolves the

And the good news is, we get to fly at Twin Oaks Airport for 2018.
Even though the sale was finalized in December, no one told me about it until
Dale heard from Marcus Tincher a few weeks ago.
I couldn't even get an address to send the rent checks to, so Mark Johnson
stopped in at the Tincher Realty office today.
All is...

This is the month where I ask Oz Report readers for their support. Your
contribution pays for hosting our web site and for Gerry's technical support to
keep it running.
I want to give a shout out to Gregg Ludwig who last week sent in $60. Gregg is
moving his operation to Umatilla, Florida, not far from Quest, and will be
aerotowing us...

The Moyes Gecko 170 is now in full production and has taken to the
skies with glowing reviews.
Like its little brother, the Gecko 170 is being well received and we are
especially pleased that it is the exact glider we targeted as the big brother of
the extraordinary Gecko 155. The Gecko 170 has inherited all the superior Gecko...

Every Carbon Fiber wing spar that Wills Wing installs on T2s and
T2Cs are tested to 400 pounds to verify their strength and manufacturing
consistency. Here is a quick video of the process.

The forecast was for light winds, and top of lift between 5,000' and 6,000'.
Larry wanted us to take the longer route around the Green Swamp, so we added the
intersection of Deen Still and highway 33.
A total of 113 kilometers.
With two tugs...

Yesterday, I just finished getting the tips figured out on a U2.
We still need to flight test it though. I have enough sample material to make a
few more sets. They are Carbon Fiber too.
They will be available on the S3 and U2. Probably not on the S2 as they require
additional Velcro to be sewn onto the sail.

Last weekend, I got the chance to soar around my home site of
Mount Diablo with my Oudie 4 in my new carbon fiber pod. I've had the vario for
about 6 months and flown with it using a makeshift mount, so I have enough
experience with it to have some comments. Keep in mind - I'm not a comp pilot,
so I...

On Monday RAP was forecasting 15 mph out of the west southwest at
4,000' at four o'clock and pretty consistent all day with the wind turning more
westerly later in the day. This made for a task that would keep us fairly close
to highway 33 (the north south highway that runs by Quest Air). We could fight a
strong cross wind on a number of...

On Sunday Larry Bunner, Rob Clarkson and I took on a triangle task
to the northwest. Despite the fact that RAP showed 13 mph south surface winds at
1 PM we called a closed task to get us back to Quest Air. We saw the top of lift
at 6,000' and 500-600 fpm lift in the same forecast.
The first and furthest turnpoint was a 5 KM cylinder around...
