Hi Douglas

I definitely think the product is worth the money. I asked Garmin about the
Glide Ratio function, I hope they can provide a fix. Nice to know that some
works are in progress for software related to our gliding activity.

Using some answers provided by different persons I am working on maps to get
SUA displayed on the unit, not an easy task but I hope to succeed, talented
people have developped very nice piece of software for free.

Gilles,
You made a great choice. I use the 76S in my 1-26 and bring it with me
for
use in club ships. I recommend the Ram Mounts and especially the suction
cup
for use in different ships or driving for that matter.

The glide ratio is a bit twitchy, but if you are on a straight run it
gives you
a basic idea. I find I use the ground speed alot to judge the winds. The
simple arrow to home or your next waypoint is a great indicator

If you fly in two seaters, and the back seat is lacking instruments, it's
a
great back up.

Lastly, I've had some contact with Garmins tech supports, and there were
hints
of more soaring/hang gliding software updates to come.
