Default Old EW Avionics Model B file (.ewt) conversion to .igc

I have a put copy at www.newportpeace.co.uk/temp/CONV-EWA.EXE

As Paul says, it has has problems because it wants Full-Screen mode and it
is a 16-bit program and won't run on a on a 64-bit PC.

Both these problems can be solved by running under DOSBOX.

I have written notes on using DOSBOX for these 16-bit programs at:

Share and enjoy!

I had the same problem some years ago, and found a copy of the
CONV-EWA utility. I think it was on the old EW (not EWavionics)
website, which is no longer there, not sure if it's available anywhere
else.

It's an old MS-DOS program, and it won't run on my 64-bit Windows7
PC, but luckily I had an old laptop kicking around that it would run on
and I converted all of my flights. I can send a copy if you like.

I used it in the 1990s and still have a nice collection of flight logs

EWView program. Anyone can help? Thanks in advance ...
