Does anybody have a clue where I could get a "Whiz Wheel" for a

faith in the reliability of their electronic glide computers. Last
week my computer lost its 3-D GPS fix and I was forced to use my
wits...not a very useful tool. I've contacted all the usual suspects
in the US and asked the British Gliding Association for ideas. Whiz
Wheels seemed to have gone the way of my wing-mate the Dodo bird. TIA
Or, just make yourself a half page of charts for a few wind condtions
and McCready settings. You aren't going to fine-tune a contest finish if
your GPS isn't working, anyway.
