PowerFlarm Update for the Seniors Contest in Florida
This question was asked about the 2015 Senior Soaring Championships
There is a contest in the early part of March Seniors in Florida approx. 65 glider If the new update is out will there be a problem if some have the update and some don't. Flarm Response: Yes, you are correct, that would be a problem. Devices with the old firmware cannot communicate with the new firmware. From the next firmware release, we will make sure that the protocol changes automatically at the changeover date. Unfortunately that was not possible for this update. For this contest, I would recommend that nobody updates their devices until after the contest. Richard www.craggyaero.com |

Charlie Papa: making racial remarks is not OK and definitely not funny. I predict there will be more than one contestant showing up at the Seniors with an updated PFlarm. What then, you can't un-ring that bell. But wait, that's really not a problem. The update takes around 5, at most 10 minutes. All you have to do is insert the memory stick with the correct file into the rectum of your unit, turn it on and wait. Why are we making such noise about it? Herb |

How did we all do before Flarm was developed?

Herb, are you too young to remember Tom Lehrer?
If so, what are you doing reading a post about the Seniors? Watch the video and find the this is the next line in the lyrics about a post-apocalyptic radioactive future.

I suspect I'm one of the few here (at least from outside South Africa) who actually knew what the word meant without looking it up, and while that's one I've never been called (I did get called kaff*r in London, once), I know where Herb was coming from. Context is everything, Lehrer was consciously (but satirically) being offensive back then, it's interesting how what is offensive about his songs has shifted in the intervening 50 years... Marc |
