My choice: *SN-10 as primary glide/task computer/vario (with it's own dedicated Garmin hockey-puck GPS hardwired in). *Backup (on separate battery system) is my IGC logger (a Themi) driving a PDA running SeeYou Mobile, used mainly to show airspace, the current task, and reachable airports (and ridges if useful). SN-10 map page is OK as a backup but does not approach the utility of the PDA display. *SYM allows setting up a simple easy to see moving map with nice big fonts and easy to see lines - visible even in bright Arizona sunlight. PDA also can download the logger files from the SN10 and Themi (via appropriate DOS emulator software - a bit of a pain to setup but does work). 302A look nice but too expensive for a backup vario. *If i win the lottery, though, it would replace the Themi and have the advantage of a TE vario that doesn't rely on the vulnerable TE probe. Kirk 66 302A is only a logger. The 302 is the version with the logger and vario. |
