Would you still like to see "Airspace Alerts" shown in the box, but just eliminate the "Squawk" sound? Currently, we don't support this option, but it could become a requirement for a future version, if requested by multiple users.

Here's one vote for a way to quickly mute all audible alerts for the duration of a flight (or longer). I took someone for their first flight recently, and they were a little nervous; after the flight, they commented, "I thought you were doing a pretty good job, but every time I started to get comfortable with what was going on, that little box would make a funny noise or start saying things and it kinda spooked me!"

One other forgotten detail....the flight timer. It used to reset anytime we dropped the speed below 20mph. Now it doesn't seem to reset at all. I'm up to 15 hours or so and I've made a number of flights with stops but it hasn't reset at all.

Any ideas?

Thanks Ed,

I'll give that a shot tomorrow.

Hi Frank,

The flight timer starts at 15kts, and stops as you slow down below 15kts. To reset it, just touch the timer, then select "Reset Timer". With the old behavior, the timer would stop and clear itself before you got off the runway.. Now you can shut down and reboot at the coffee house. Your running time will still be there for planning the trip back home...

Ok, that worked for a whole day then the thing reset itself after an overnight and then again after a stop on the same day.(today). Any reason it would do that?

I 'believe' I'm still using the original version 6. At least I can't remember updating it unless it does automatically. Should I down load version 7 or wait for awhile to see if there's bugs that needed to be worked out (I hate to mess with something that seems to be working fairly well ).

Thanks

Mike
