Variometer Overview Videos

Hi,

I am always trying to think of new ways to help soaring pilots select the
right soaring instruments for their needs. A while ago I thought of the
idea of adding audio recordings to my web site of each variometer - so
customers could judge for themselves which one was the best match for their
tastes. But recently I have started to dabble in video editing on my PC and
it struck me ...why not put short video clips of all the soaring instruments
onto my web site. If is picture is worth a thousand words, then a video
with sound must be worth a million.

It will take time for me to get them all done, but the first one is ready to
go. It is a 6 minute overview of the Tasman V1000 variometer. It is not
great quality video and I did not take the time to create a script. The
idea is to keep it simple so I can find time to do many of them. You can

The goal was to show the basic features of the vario for those interested in
buying one. However, the video could be used to remind current owners how
to use all the features of the vario. If you have a Tasman in a club glider
you may want to put a link to the video into your club newsletter so club
members can brush-up on the features of the unit.

I hope you find it useful.

Good Soaring,
