Hi,

I added some photos of it in flight to my web site earlier today. It looks
quite impressive to me.

Hi,

I have just added the new Butterfly Vario to my web site. It is a very
impressive new vario with FLARM display (when attached to a FLARM),
GPS
flight recorder, simple navigation, simple final glide, artificial
horizon,
and many other very nice features. You can see details

Good Soaring,

It will be worth informing your customers that fly in US sanctioned
contests that this instrument, as described, will not
be legal for use in US contests due to the incorporation of the
artificial horizon.

I raised the same issue when I first read about it and was told that
the horizon feature can be disabled for use in sanctioned contests.

It looks like a very interesting new instrument and I'm looking
forward to hearing some flight reviews.

I would like to see some real images of it, the CAD renderings are
cool, but nothing like seeing the "real" unit.
