It has been a while since I used GPS during a flight, with the pilots
permission.

We were on a 777 and the iBlue acquired easily.

We fly up over Canada and I saw a point I created years ago over Iceland.
When we got over Scotland and then England, it was fun to see users points
like the dog run at a hotel recorded by Gavin Atkins, some others by JG1104
and more. Glad to see you guys are enriching the environment. 

Now, we are in Birmingham for the Sight Village conference. Looking forward
to seeing people at our presentation at the HumanWare booth or around the
hall.

We had a fun hour and a half driving from the airport to test 3 GPS systems
including the UK version of the Seeing Eye GPS. The main differences to deal
with are maps and address matching, which is handled differently in the
databases. Some cool stuff in the works.
