flight sotware for iphone?

Apparently the fix for the mysterious not saving the default settings is to write a post on RAS. Because it seems to be working fine now.

On the topic of xc soar vs Iglide vs others.

XC soar is excellent, and IGlide is looking pretty good. I run XC soar on a pocket pc, connected to a Cambridge 302. It works well, with a few annoyances. Adding a turn point to a task in flight takes a lot of keystrokes.. The map is OK, but not great. Other that that, XC soar is fantastic.

Iglide has a fantastic map, very detailed, and adding a new point is easy. But it doesn't show a "glide amoeba" which I wish it did. Also, if you hit the home button on your device, it stops and your log file stops also. That could be a pain in the neck if you are planning to put your file on the OLC. I can always get the file from the 302, but that requires the pocket PC that I'm trying to get rid of.

Bottom line for me. XC soar is very good. Iglide looks good so far, but I'm not far enough along to get rid of the pocket PC running XC soar just yet. I'll report back after a few more flights.

I don't think mine has stopped the log file after hitting the home button. I will try next time I fly but I'm sure I've hit the home button while in flight before.

I'm looking forward to the day I integrate the Buttery Fly Vario with my iPhone running iGlide.
