Soaring apps for iPhone
Hi,
I look forward to trying it anyway. It may work better than you think. I
hope it does.
Best Regards,

Yeah, as Darryl pointed, that cell phone network thingy makes it
pretty much worthless unless you fly below 3000 ft AGL near good
reception area. I tried it and it worked nice until I climbed to above
3-4000 ft. It will also eat your battery really quick, like an hour or
less. Good for tracking pattern flights :-)

This could make SPOT tracking at contests obsolete - at least for owners
of
iPhones. I can't wait to use it at a soaring contest this summer. Of
course, it doesn't replace the emergency features that a SPOT offers.
Just that cell phone network thingy to sort out. But when it does not
work as a tracker it serves as a handy AT&T coverage map generator. :-

Nice looking app however.
