Sailplane pilots seem to have high techno-geek standings. I have been watching with curiosity/amusement the media frenzy over this device. Cell phones are quite useful for many of us, and particularly for retrieves(when we have coverage!). So is this device clever marketing by Steve Jobs, or is...

At 7:26 PM Mountain Time there are no flights for July 3 shown for the US on the OLC site. Does this strike anyone as strange? I was looking for some Parowan Reg 9 flights. Bill Daniels
