You still don't need to have any waypoints in the Model 20. *I used to

That was back in 2000, so my memory might be a bit foggy, but an
pretty sure that's how I did it.

Hi Tom,

Yes and no. It will load the points. However, it can be a "creaky"
solution. I had at least one record flight squished when I went to
load special use airspace after the task had been declared. I did
this in flight, and sure enough, it tried to reload all of the
waypoints but stopped at 250. Unfortunately, one of the ones
required for the task wasn't there, and it then threw some sort of
"invalid task" error. I just want to make sure that I have one and
only one file to use and that everthing is nice and neat before
takeoff.

Frankly, I'm doing this out of an "excess of caution", as I will make
sure that the backup logger and main logger have the same task
declarations, and it's a flight I can fly without really needing the
PDA.
