The old Cambridge loggers are secure hardware, maybe the encryption is
nor modern to today's standard - but heck these guys invented the
flight logger! I do not understand how the OLC are willing to
accept .igc files from open source software like XC Soar or other PDA/
Android systems that are much easier to hack, these software programs
are promoted as easily modifiable.

I wonder if there is not just some lingering anti-american sentiment
at the OLC?
The few email messages that i've had in the past with the OLC give me
the impression that they are stern, and narrow minded and not open to
suggestions or input from others.
