IGC-approval for the FlarmMouse Flight Recorder

I am pleased to announce IGC-approval for the FlarmMouse Flight Recorder produced by LXNAV d.o.o. of Celje, Slovenia. This uses Flarm-IGC firmware mounted in a small case by LXNAV. Its IGC-approval document can be found on the GFAC and FAI/IGC web sites given below. The IGC-approval level is for badge flights up to and including the three Diamonds.

There are now 48 types of IGC-approved Flight Recorders from 17 different manufacturers.
