Anyone been able to get Oz 2.0 to work in a Boeing (besides Stearman) cockpit?
Works just fine peering out a pax window but I have not been able to get a satellite lock in the 777 cockpit.
Maybe the rear side windows might work in the 767 Keg.

I've spent ages trying to get my Garmin Nuvi to lock on in both the 777 and A330 cockpits, it will but never for very long!!
Down the back it works just fine ( as you've said )
Makes the average Speed a little to high but impresses friends in my car when I show them my max speed of 1000km/h ……...

I would have thought that the windscreen heaters make a perfect Faraday cage in the front, so no reception.
Eyebrow windows are a thing of the past, and i can't remember if the opening side windows are heated (with conductive film) or not.

everyone will hit the downloads page and bring the OzRunways ISP down
Will there be an option to cache data on your computer so as the data can be shared between your iphone and Ipad? stoping double downloading.

Chuckles, worked fine in the Douglas/Boeing 717 t'other night. Only tried for a few mins but it showed us on the airway, correct altitude give or take a bit, and accurate ground speed.

Has anyone found a good solution (apart from the suction cap to the window thingy) to hooking the Iphone in a position that it is readable? At this stage I cant afford the Ipad(not for a few months anyway bugger it
).
I though something that attaches to the yoke might be a goer kinda like those Garmin clips?
And Nick
You need to hit direct to:
Just tap your finger on the screen near where you wanna go, and it will give you options.Select the option you desire, and it will then give you eet etc.
And of course, just as I ask the question I find what Im looking for

Maybe cheaper here
RAM Mount iPhone 3G 3GS Clamp Mount RAP-B-121-AP6, RAP-B-121-AP6U
I think GPSCity is run by an expat Aussie with a bad Canadian accent (see it on the instruction/demo video's for each item you look up).
