By the way: if you favour an "honor" system to control compliance of

he won't go / hasn't been going IMC. The same people (if any) will try

This is so true we are still relying on honor system.

I have a real problem banning LK8000 just because it has a screen that
shows estimated angle of bank based on GPS position. I think this
clarification needs to be changed a bit. I am all for RC efforts but
banning a screen like this would be too much. We are talking about
processing GPS data not sensors signals. Please think about this you
have the same data by zooming into your moving map display.

I hope Evan is going to sort all of this with RC before this thread
reaches 200 entries.
