Cambridge 302 Tones Described

When I purchased the Cambridge 302 I was somewhat bewildered by the
different tones that the 302 can make during flight - other than lift/
sink that is. Once I flew with the 302 for a while the various tones
started to make sense. You can listen to lift, sink, speed to fly,
gear warnings, slow speed and SUA alarms.

However, the manual buries this information deep within the "Flying
with the Cambridge DDV" section in a less than clear way. So I wrote
a synopsis of the tones in a simple and hopefully clearer document.

Please let me know if I messed up or forgot something. Thanks, John

Suggest you add an explanation of the power up gear warning test and
also an explanation of the fact that the slow speed warning depends on
both the pilot specified ballast load and on normal acceleration (g
load).

The low speed warning can get quite irritating if you dump to make a
save and are too busy to adjust the ballast entry. On the other hand
it does serve as a reminder to adjust the ballast entry which you
might otherwise forget if the save works and you get back into racing
mode.

Thanks for the comments. I have added this information. Take a look.
