Default Barographs?

Of course, you will have to bungee launch off a hill in a primary
glider attached to your barograph...with a Model T as a retrieve
vehicle.

In otherwords, why bother? We pay a lot of tax money to support the
GPS system, get some use out of it!

And be sure to check the SSA site for the recording requirements for
badge flights - barographs are only valid for badge altitude or time
claims, or badge distance without turnpoints.

Probably a lot easier to ask around and borrow a proper GPS logger -
you will definitely make the badge lady happier, and get to relive the
flight via SeeYou afterwards - and let us enjoy it on OLC!
