Default Glide computer review

Noel, have you tried the SN-10 demo? I test aircraft cockpit display
software for a living and really like the SN-10 for in-flight ease of
use. I find it pretty logical -especially for competitions. OTOH,
most PDA software is pretty hideous. SYM is just bearable, but since
I only use it for a stripped down moving map, that's OK for now.

It is neat to have all these gizmos in the cockpit. I joke with my
friends that I have way more comm, nav, and ID capability in my glider
than I ever had in the F-4s I flew in the AF!

Cheers,

Kirk
