If you like sectional charts (and I do), you may be interested to know that up-to-date, downloadable sectional charts are available for the most popular soaring flight planning software. Just visit the Sectionals tab on my website at http://www.soaringdata.info to find:

- CMR format files for desktop SeeYou
- GeoTiff (preferred) and JPEG files for Google Earth
- Charts for GlidePlan, including composite custom charts for many contest sites

As always, stuff on my website is completely free.

Happy downloading!

Thanks Lynn!
The CMR sectionals can also be used in LX flight computers. The latest firmware lets you easily switch between the standard terrain map to sectional chart.

Which firm ware because I have been asking for but do not see on 6.20. I like to refer to a sectional but think they are a bit busy for full time map use.

I believe you must update to the “beta” firmware. The version I’m using is 6.33a

Correct, the latest beta firmware has an option to change the map setting for a particular page, so you can have sectional in one page and terrain in another. Seem to work well.
BTW the latest beta firmware also addresses most of the issues with mode C alarms.
