Thanks for the info - probably the cheapest way of getting an OLC
certified logger.


depends on how you figure the cost. *the app is 10 bucks but the phone
is what? *a couple or three hundred? *won't pretty much any old garmin
handheld make a file that can be converted to igc format? *i just
picked up a flywithCE logger that was $120 and ready for the OLC.


Also another option for the iPhone is to run StyleTap and SoarPilot.
This is more expensive than this app -- I think StyleTap is about $50
--
but it gives you full flight computer abilities. *SoarPilot is still a
going
concern these days, even though the Palm units are getting
pretty old.


Meanwhile, good work!

Don't know if this has been mentioned yet but there is a Droid phone
app called "Gaggle" that is very similarly featured. Its user
developed and is free. I haven't used it soaring but have played with
the app and it really cool. It currently not approved by the .IGC. I
don't know about using it for OLC flights though. There are lots of
Droid phone users out there so it may get popular. When I finish my
Duster I am thinking of purchasing the biggest screen droid phones you
can get and will use this product...at least try it.
