Re: Using iPad/iPhone for navigation

I love using the AirNav pro app on an iPhone/iPad but the one issue I have is glare on the screen and general unsuitability of these screens in sunlight. Has anyone tried an anti-glare screen protector in these devices with any decent results. Or other suggestions as dedicated GPS units although ea...

Kyk vir 'n mooi Bushbaby, kry elke nou en dan een vir 'n goeie prys. Dis wat ek gedoen het en weeg ook dieselfde.

Jy sal jou en vroulief kan op vat met so plusminus 56kg se brandstof, of selfs bietjie meer.

best way to calculate L/ph or fuel burn

Hi guys.
But of a novice question, please dont scold me....

So, i am curious, what would be the simplest way to check my trike's fuel burn? I dont exactly want to plonk in 30l, fly a hour, drain the tank and see whats left. Is there a easier way, or is that it?
Thank you in advance!
