In my case I tried many different solutions with varying degrees of success. AirGizmos Gust Locks are designed to quickly lock virtually any control surface securely.

NEWflyWithCE Flight Recorder  
NEWflyWithCE Logbook


(actual size!)
Some time ago first consumer GPS devices with built in logger were introduced. Because of the lower price they were interesting alternative to IGC certified (purpose built) flight recorders. After few short tests Uros at FlyWithCE decided to convert one of them to flight recorder. Then long process of the development started. The main goal was to keep it simple and because of that design changed few times. Device manufacturer also helped us by updating GPS firmware so that device would fit flight recorder requirements as close as possible. After almost two years of work and testing here is small and interesting device with easy to use software designed and produced exclusively by FlyWithCE.
literally pocket sized (or smaller!)
Runs on (2) internal AAA Batteries, no cables, no mounts or additional hardware required!

CYCLO MODEL 5/DUAL HEAD POLISHER
The Cyclo Orbital Polisher is designed to simulate hand polishing.
VIDEO:  Swirl Free Finish on Black Paint

VIDEO: Headlight Restoration

The Cyclo Orbital Polisher has been polishing planes, automobiles, and RVs since 1953, when they received patents on their orbital polishing mechanisms. That same year, the company received approval from the US government to polish the military’s aircraft and missiles. The Cyclo Polisher is still used today to polish the Air Force One fleet. With a resume like that, we just had to see what the Cyclo is all about. The Cyclo Polisher is the only dual-head polisher on the market. Both heads move in an orbital motion, counter-clockwise. The idea is to simulate hand polishing but at a much faster rate. Going over a scratch or swirl with both heads ensures that you are attacking it from all sides, so to speak. No matter what angle you look at the paint, you will not see the former blemish. It’s the fool-proof polisher! see page 44 for more!

 WX/Block Wx/Seal combination package
for only
$315.95!


Wx/Block and Wx/Seal are specially formulated to protect Sailplane Finishes. The surface protection contains maximum levels of UV inhibition, along with gloss enhancing and anti-static surfacing agents SPECIALLY designed for gel coat finishes. Wx/Block was designed to help maintain a high level of gel coat integrity by reducing the effects of environmental exposure. Wx/Block is completely safe for all gel coats, polyester based finished (Prestec or Duratec) or urethane paint finishes.
The Wx/Block block system is extremely easy to apply, just wipe on and hand buff for an outstanding gloss finish. Wx/Block is also perfect for daily clean-up and bug removal.


Wx/Block and Wx/Seal is an easy to use 2 part system. First, Wx/Seal is applied as a surface sealing and  cleaning compound, which conditions the surface. All Gel coats contain microscopic porosity. The Wx/Seal cleans residual dirt and wax from the surface and seals these porosity's actually helping the Wx/Block adhere to the surface. Wx/Seal may be applied by hand or if you prefer by machine. Finally, Wx/Block is applied by hand which contains the UV Blocking and Anti-Static agents which help to protect the finish. These agents also produce lower surface tension than standard waxes and reduce the severity of bug sticks and dust accumulation.
