So Martin, what is your choice of software?

My personal 'must-have' requirements are that, assuming you entered the

task before taking a launch:



- if its a good day and you complete the task, you shouldn't have had

to touch the system during the flight, i.e. you get task start and

finish notifications, the display zooms in as you approach a turnpoint,

there is a beep and the next TP is selected as soon as you have a point

in the sector and the display zooms out again.



- if you need to skip a TP, abandon the task and head home, or get a

course for the nearest landable field, these should all be doable

without messing about with menus, etc.



- the map shouldn't be cluttered with airspace unless there's a

possibility you'll enter it.



That's my definition and please note that in the UK we seldom if ever

need to change tasks after take-off.
