They were using the Compaq TC1000 (http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/tabletpc/tc1000.html). It is a complete computer with a touch screen. Basically like a really large palm pilot. But, it is also a FULL computer. The price is nice too. Only about $1,500 street price for it. At Sun-n-fun they were showing the FULL Jepps charts and they had the flight planning software. Hook up a small battery printer to it and you can print out any approach plate while in route. If I flew IFR all over the US more than once a month, I would own this set-up! For now I’m stuck in Florida teaching people how to fly. Take a look at the link above and read about this unit. It’s fairly incredible. Danny Creech __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
