Reduced Effort On Complex Flights
TeleType is expanding
its TeleType GPS WorldNavigator aviation product for both VFR and
IFR navigation. Victor Airways support is a powerful innovation
that greatly reduces the effort required to enter complex flight
routes. The Pocket PC based system allows a pilot to enter a route
giving the entry fix on a Victor Airway and the exit fix for that
airway.
Multiple Victor Airways can be used in one flight route. While
the software has been updated to be used in an IFR environment,
many of the new features will also help VFR pilots seeking an
easy-to-use Pocket PC based GPS system. "TeleType is excited to
bring to the Pocket PC aviation community a new level of
functionality for Pocket PC GPS navigation systems", according to
Ed Friedman, President, TeleType. The company has retained the
consulting services of Ed Strassberger, IFR rated private pilot, to
bring this new aviation product to the market.
