This does not totally agree with the most up to date news on the CAI
website, March 23 2005, which states:--

"The International Gliding Commission (IGC) has postponed indefinitely
putting into effect its earlier decision to downgrade the certification of
older "legacy" flight recorders produced by Cambridge and other
manufacturers. This means that owners of the Cambridge GPS-NAV models 10,
20, and 25 will continue to be able to use these flight recorders for all
levels of competition, including world record flights."

Revised IGC-approval documents have been issued for the following types of
GNSS Flight Recorders:

Cambridge models 10, 20 and 25

In both cases, the manufacturer's details have been updated and in the
case of Cambridge, the change of IGC-approval level that will occur on 15
March 2006 has been incorporated. The revised manufacturer's details are
