From the Patent Page: "Use of the instant invention will...reduce pilot error", "The problem that arises is that the pilot must either remember or make written notes of the recorded information, which is not always easy to do"
mmm... I'm of the opinion that scribbling down figures with a chinagraph and then checking them with the next ATIS is at least as easy to do as meddling with 7 or so wheels, and I would suggest that spinning all those wheels quickly to keep up with the ATIS would even INCREASE pilot error.
Looks like something that could be knocked up Blue Peter style with an empty cornflakes packet to form the 'sleeve', using the lid of a small jam jar to mark out on the remainder of the cornflakes package the circles to make the 'discs' (get an adult to assist in using sharp scissors), marker pen for the nomanclature, lid of a large jam jar for the central disc, some poster paints and not forgetting press studs (or whatever) to act as spindles for the discs.
The de-lux version will be laminated with sticky-backed plastic.
Makes and ideal Christmas gift for any of your pilot friends.
