On Sunday I flew my first wave flight of this season. Nothing too stunning - but I did get into the Arapahoe Peaks Soaring Area to FL205. I found myself...
Elliot, First, you can configure SP to always show SUA's even when in thermal mode and when on the waypoint map screen. Here's the page from the online manual...
Mark - Thanks. We are so spoiled out here in the Rocky Mountains - flights into the 20's are relatively commonplace. High 20's becomes infrequent and every...
I checked out the archives and can't find anyhting exactly the same, but an April 26, 2006 thread comes close. Did "Franchini Luca" meet lift on this one? I...
Thanks for the replies! My error was setting the garmin to "garmin" instead of NMEA, thinking that setting the PDA to "garmin" would be correct. I do find,...

Would it be nice, if a paraglider pilots had a possibility to connect an airspeed indicator to the SP? This would allow for a true polar calculation, wouldn't...
Andrey, Do you know of any airspeed indicators that output airspeed in a serial, NMEA-like fashion? In the glider community I know that a couple of the more...
As far as I understand, there are airspeed indicators that export analog value (voltage). They should be connected to (adapter) microphone input of the PDA,...
Another idea: I have a hand-held wind meter. If I had an appropriate "polar calibration screen", I could choose a smooth air interval, and enter measured...
All, I wondered how long it would take and I am actually surprised it's taken this long. However, last night I got notified of a change to the online wiki...
