See You Mobile Declared Task Pilot Name

As far as I know you cannot change the pilot name from the name that see you mobile is registered to. I will eventually buy my own copy of see you mobile but for right now I am a youngster who is very fortunate to have someone who is willing to let me borrow their airplane and instruments in that airplane to chase my first badge.

Thanks

I can enter a separate pilot in the Cambridge 302/303 but I

don't want a

task declared through to the 302/303 with a different name

from see you

mobile. Does anyone know a good solution to this one?

I'm going to stick my neck out and say that your initial premise

that it is the registered SYM name that is sent to the logger with

the declaration is wrong. Copied and pasted from the SYM

manual section on task declaration:



"After the communication is established, the following data is

transferred automatically

to the flight recorder:

Declared task in SeeYou Mobile which you have entered in

Menu Task

Glider information which is entered in Menu Settings Polar

(glider type) and Menu Settings Log

(glider registration)

Pilot name as entered in Menu Settings Log"



So, if the manual is correct, all you should have to do is alter

the pilot details to your own in Menu/Settings/Log for your

badge flight and remember to change them back to the owner's

when you return the PDA.
