Thanks for pointing to that, I wasn‘t really paying attention to it. I‘d like to extend the request to automatic fallback to the internal GPS when the external device does no longer answer after a certain time (as the competion already does btw).

My new share-o-plane has a PilotAware fitted on a cigarette lighter adaptor.
Saves messing with a usb battery like my previous rental setup, but being switched on with the avionics master means that it isn’t ready for use for a couple of minutes after startup.
I’ve got quite used to the engine start and off blocks logging, but this requires starting the flight before the engine is started.
Is there any way to start a flight using my iPad’s location services and then switch to the PilotAware once that has booted?
It should have finished booting by the time runup checks are completed...
