Hi I own an old Palm Vx and a Sony Clié TJ37. We have a lot of SUA in Switzerland and around (419 items and 5430 points) and I added about 600 waypoints. If...
Hi, i agree with Paul here. I think that a "moving map" would uselessly clutter the display. It is hard enough to read the display in sunglight and with a...
Hi Paul and all other SP users ... Commercial Applications must mainly sell on the ground, i.e. showing the software to potential glider pilots on (long)...
Paul, The data mainly comes from NEMA (which is a HUGE database), I believe it is a subset of the DAFIF data which you already get terrain elevation and SUA...
Hi Paul and All! I hope that following suggestion provides a useful addition and an interesting challenge for Paul (BTW I would be glad to help out): During...
Hi Uri, i guess that would be nice to have, but impossible to achieve. Consider that the "Idaflieg" tries to replace their current measuring system for polars...
..... since my first mail seems to have misfired (i cant see it here) it ry sending it again... sorry for any double-mails..... Hi, i agree with Paul here. I...
Well ... I agree, the best map is when a see outside the cockpit ... I agree also, i use the moving map in first use to take care about the SUA and restrictive...
... I may be mistaken, but I think you are wrong here. The dataset we used in KFLog/Cumulus for ground elevations has nothing to do with NEMA or DAFIF. I have...
Manu, http://www.nav2000.com is a nice site, too bad it's only in French... :( Personally I don't need a moving map in SP, I think it would clutter the display...
Markus, Consider the following: * we should not be using "theoretical" or "sales" polars, but actual achieved polars. Anyway for a 37 year-old glider like...
Previously some of us reported final glide problems in head wind. In this situation it would be useful to have a GPS based current l/d or polar because it...
Janos, Is there really a problem? In my experience of flying with SP it has always been very good on final glides. This does depend on getting the polar curve...
... Yes, I had a strange case with std Cirrus where sp indicated above glide slope three times (during ~65km final glide) and all the cases I ended up below...
Paul, I actually would like to take this as a personal sub-project. I would start with a presentation of the actual L/D achieved, and work from there. I...
I think a useful functions (they are implemented in SeeYou and seem useful to me) would be: 1. achieved L/D 2. required L/D 1 is a simple geometric calculation...
Regarding the moving map: I have seen the moving map displays used by other software and I have come to the conclusion that it is just too much information. It...
I have installed SPterm on two XP machines and a Win 2000 machine with no problems. The only thing that I can think of is that your source file has been...
Just to confirm, I have also installed SP on WIN XP, with no problem. Best regards, Peter Rónai ... From: Paul R. Jorgenson [mailto:ke7hr@...] Sent:...

Janos, Do you have an IGC file for this flight? I would be really interested to reply this and see if I can replicate the problem. Paul ... has ... above ... ...
Hi Uri, We actually had an L/D field back in version 1.8.5 There was a lot of discussion about if it was useful or not. Maybe you can search back in the...
Hi Paul, I came to SP after v1.8.5, so didn't get a chance to experience it. I actually looked for the reasons, since I saw in one of the readme files that it...
Here are the changes I propose to make to make SP "fully" compatible with Seeyou waypoints The field mapping will change to Seeyou in SP Title -> remarks ...
1.84 was the version that introduced the L/D calculation. It was an average of up to 30 instantaneous readings and still jumped around quite a bit. The ...

A couple of days ago I was thermalling near the edge of an adjacent SUA. As the wind was drifting me slowly towards this SUA, the SUA warning kept coming up...
I agree that we don't want to clutter up SP with true moving map features. However there is a compromise :- I have been running GPSPilot on the Palm for a...
Paul, Thanks for the proposal. This does seem the most compatible solution. My apologies for not trying a direct load of SeeYou, where the data will indeed be...
All, I am in total agreement with Paul (eye candy) and Robert (Commercial Applications must mainly sell on the ground) on this one. Having personally known 2...
Yes, but then KISS is a much overworked and discredited cliché. It implies that if you are not simple then you must be stupid. Well suit yourself. I think...
