We are very happy to announce that LX Navigation will be releasing their new LX8000 Color computer. This instrument has a color display that you will be able to read in bright sunlight! I love the idea of the bright color display, but what I'm really wondering is ... is it available in the USA with FLARM capability? -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA * Change "netto" to "net" to email me directly * "Transponders in Sailplanes" http://tinyurl.com/y739x4 * "A Guide to Self-launching Sailplane Operation" at www.motorglider.org

Yes FLARM is a normal option on all current LX7000-7007.....but, who in the USA even uses FLARM???? doesn't seem to be a rush to get this technology here and LX7007 can also be upgrades to LX8000 with color and since the LX7000 is already IGC approved, adding color display should have no relevence to IGC approvals for the new version... tim Please visit the Wings & Wheels website at www.wingsandwheels.com

Yes FLARM is a normal option on all current LX7000-7007.....but, who in the USA even uses FLARM???? One reason is FLARM won't sell units to the USA, so I'm wondering if FLARM actually allows LX to sell that capability to US pilots. If so, I think there would be some market for it, like the Minden pilots flying at 250 knot closing speeds along the White Mountains, or maybe ridge runners on the Allegheny ridges, and pilots in contests. -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA * Change "netto" to "net" to email me directly * "Transponders in Sailplanes" http://tinyurl.com/y739x4 * "A Guide to Self-launching Sailplane Operation" at www.motorglider.org
