Tim Mara wrote: The version 2.0 of the Navigator is out. - information about 2.00 release is on the FlywithCE website and additional new features - safety features on page http://www.flywithce.com/navigatorsafety.html I notice on the above web location that the waypoints on the demo screens are from Slovenia (Krizka, Lesce, etc.). This makes me think that the soaring simulator Condor was used since the only location (so far) available for it is Slovenia. That's where the programmers live. I believe that the ability to "test" new PDA soaring software in the comfort of your study makes Condor worth the $50 just for that. Much better than driving around in your car or whatever. Certainly safer to learn all of the details of the PDA software at home rather than being distracted in the air. The NMEA sentences that Condor delivers are in essence no different than when flying "for real". One can test everything such as thermal mode, flying tasks, interacting with the software while "flying" and so forth. Of course Condor is also an excellent soaring simulator.

New Version FlywithCE Navigator PDA Software
you can of course load maps (from the FlywithCE website) for any location on
the planet and also install waypoint and turnpoint maps from the Soaring Server or other sites with PDA and flight computer and logger formats and then run simulator from your own PDA showing your home base or any other location..since the program is available for a free trial you can also get a full functioning version you can actually fly with (without the interruptions some have included in trail versions as a teaser that keeps it from being a working program. This is excellent software.easy to use for almost anyone even if they are not savvy computer types...It's certainly worth the trial for anyone who is new to the PDA glider programs and also to those already using some other software....most who do try it like it and I suspect many will switch to this once they have a chance to compare...

The truth is different - Navigator is also written in Slovenia and because
of that I use local maps when I am making screen shots. As Tim said you can generate maps for any other place on the earth or use waypoints prepared for other moving map programs. For the GPS simulation I use another small utility which is not publicly available and is more suitable for testing hardware or Pocket PC software.
