It is a beautiful day outside, and in many ways I wish I was back up at Lake Keepit. But some of us have to work for a living. [I think it would be wonderful in a light plane out there today, apart from some of the clouds]. One thing that I want to get started is a spec for a data logger to be approved by the International GLider Council for flights. <\/p>\n
I had more of a think about this on the way home, and I think the effort would be worth it. I need to do some preliminary stuff first, but I believe that what I want to do is very achievable. There are some technical issues to be solved, but generally they should be fairly easy I think, at least on the hardware side. On the software side there are some complications but I suspect they should be fairly quickly solved. This will not be a product that I can bring out before christmas. I suspect that it might take six months to get done thanks to approvals. <\/p>\n
I was speaking to a supplier this morning and he commented that he was looking at gliding has a hobby… Something that he had always wanted to do. He was somewhat surprised at how much flying costs, and also the risk element. The risk is something that I still cannot get my head around… Maybe my spacial visualization is not as good as other people but I just could not see most of the other gliders in the air…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
