  • PLEASE HELP!!

    Hi folks,

    Happy New Year!

    NEED YOUR HELP!!

    Aviation authorities are discussing and planning to introduce new air law soon which will require all of us RC pilots to have a transponder fitted to our aircraft.

    We believe this is both unnecessary, complicated and expensive.

    An update to the aeromura app has just been released, and which is now a totally FREE alternative to a transponder.

    We need as many RC pilots as possible to have the app, so it can be showed to aviation authorities that there is already a freely available and reasonable alternative to a transponder on our RC aircraft.

    The more pilots using the app, the more "power" we have through number of pilots already using it, so that we can show aviation authorities that the app is already a very real prospect, requiring no additional air law around transponders for our aircraft!

    The app is *** FREE *** to download and use, and you can also use it entirely anonymously.

    No funny business.

    Please help us, and join the 15000 RC pilots already using the app, and get yours today!

    Some other features of the app also include :

    As a pilot...

    ■ keep a flight logbook for each of your aircraft
    ■ just open the app when you are at the club, and be automatically checked-in, easily, conveniently, and electronically
    ■ see who has checked in to your favorite club recently with what aircraft
    ■ see who is currently also on your frequency when at your club when you are not on 2.4Ghz
    ■ see if conditions are good to fly at the moment at your local club
    ■ see what flying opportunities there are to fly at your local club according to the weather in the next 10 days
    ■ see what clubs are available to fly at, near the destination of your trip
    ■ see what pilots are in your local area or at the destination of your trip and engage with them
    ■ see what aircraft your friends and local pilots have in their fleet
    ■ see what the active runway is and what the recommended take-off/landing direction is recommended if you are a novice
    ■ see which slopes are available nearby or close to your destination to fly your glider according to wind strength and direction
    ■ see what kits, plans and manufacturers are available and their technical specifications (such as centre of gravity settings and more)

    As a club...

    ■ see who has flown what and when at the club
    ■ see who has checked-in to the club recently
    ■ see who is on what frequency at the moment
    ■ see what flying opportunities there are to fly according to the weather in the next 10 days
    ■ see what pilots are local to the club
    ■ see what aircraft are local to the club
    ■ see what the active runway is and what the current or future recommended take-off/landing direction is

    Fly to live! Live to fly!

    First, it's already law to have a beacon on our planes unless flying in a FRIA or under 0.55lb. Enforcement has for the most part been delayed though the FAA says they may still enforce it at their will. Also the FAA already has an app that looks like yours though I'm sur yours does a lot more. And the app is not an accepted substitute for the beacon. Note it is a locating beacon not a transponder.
