Hello,

I am new to flying and half way through my PPL. I love gadgets so once I get my PPL I am sure to use SkyDemon on my iPad as well as my paper charts.

So far, I've been using SkyDemon Navigation with MS Flight Simulator just to see how it would work in the air and I'm really impressed! I have a Wifi-only iPad so I really need to buy an external GPS unit for when I'm in the air. I was thinking about the Dual XGPS150 which seems to be well rated online.

I'd love to hear about any positivie or negative comments about the XGPS150 from other SkyDemon users!

Cheers
James

Have you tried loading the different chart styles available in SD? Also when planning on PC you can have the virtual radr window open that gives vertical nav (obstacles etc) - I agree its not absolute laterally but it gives you the vertical alerts that you ned (IMHO).

Also have you got all the terrain features turned on? - roads, railways etc
