My technique developed employing modern consumer
tech toys to improve and enhance safety is now limited only to show
other pilots, when bragging before and after flights, the eight or
niner
PDA PNA PODS PADS ANDROIDS GARMINS PHONES CAMS SPOTS VIDS, NO FLARM
YET,
we carry in our pockets and/or deploy on the dash, then asking all
other local pilots to:
KEEP LOOKING OUTSIDE WHEN FLYING........
because me and my buddy have no more time to look outside, we are
also very distracted and annoyed listening to normal radio coms.

We feel pilots should stop broadcasting prehistoric radio
messages...........
We rather like be informed by modern SMS via 3G networks about
positions/intentions

The first time we went flying with the IPAD after 3 hours the engine
started sputtering,
my copi was faster then my brain, before I blinked my eyes he opened
the right fuel valve......
absorbed by IPAD tech toy we flew 3 hours with no fuel management,
emptying the left!!!!

Thanks a Lot!/Merci Beaucoup!/Danke Shoen!/Muchas Gracias!/Grazie
