Didn't realize that it took a lot of machismo to determine if a needle
was pointing left or right. But I've been wrong before. ![]() -- Gene Seibel Hangar 131 - http://pad39a.com/gene/plane.html Because I fly, I envy no one. Gene, I guess I still wasn't clear on what I was trying to say. A GPS is great for knowing where you are on a pre-planned course. A GPS moving map isn't good for much of anything. Well, I couldn't agree less. GPS moving maps are a WONDERFUL tool for situational awareness. In fact, beyond the AI, it doesn't get much better. If you think wasting your time interpreting arcane needles is better, it may be time to tune down the machismo ;-) |
