Default GammaFV 1.1 - Mac OS X IGC file viewer

Fantastic, thank you! Very nice for a quick look at IGC files on the laptop.

One very small request - I see you pull out the Pilot and glider information, which is nice. Could you also display the total elapsed flight time? This would let me use this for easily checking/updating my logbook. Right now I have some scripts that do this on the raw IGC files.

GammaFV is a simple Mac OS X IGC file viewer that plots the geographic
trace of a flight onto a terrain, satellite or road map.

Version 1.1 can now colour the trace with vertical speed data.

Vertical speed colouring might be a bit slow on older PowerPC based
machines. I'm using the HTML based mapping engine in a way that it wasn't
really designed to be used.

Don't expect too much from this software. It doesn't do tasks, airspace,
scoring or anything like that.
