Voice recognition. Able to accept and reply to voice commands. Input
and change flight declarations/turnpoints/turnpoint diameter/McCready
setting, etc all by voice commands. Voice command to radio to allow
frequence change and volume change.
I'd love this for winter flying so I don't have to take my gloves off to
use the PDA or change frequencies. Even better if I could say "Yakima
ATIS" or "Pasco approach" instead giving saying "125.65", etc.
