Is anyone working on or studying using WAAS GPS data to make a stand-
alone vario? How would TE be implemented in such a device? Ground speed change during a pullup? TAS based on circling winds? Do the current PDA software programs (mSeeYou, Winpilot, etc.) when used in GPS-only mode provide accurate vario data when hooked up to a WAAS GPS? Just curious - seems a 5 hz WAAS GPS could be the basis for a really nice vario that wouldn't need any pitot-static imputs. I use mSeeYou and a Themi, non-WAAS, and the "vario" data seems close, but I use it more for trend and average than instantaneous data. Winter can't end soon enough! Kirk 66 |
