Trikepilot Social

Hi Group,

Flying a microlight is great fun, but I sometimes wondered if there was anything out there that could send live coordinates of where I was, in case loved one's needed to find my last where about's... I search the web, but only found things that cost an arm and leg or required annual fees... until I stumbled across a free software at InstaMapper - Free Real-Time GPS Tracking made to work on Iphone, Android & BlackBerry mobiles, I had recently purchased an Iphone and within minutes had the InstaMapper App loaded and working. All I do is switch on software app before my flight, and it starts sending coordinates to Google Map. If my wife needs to find me, she simply logins to webpage and can see the lastest flight info, usually speed, Height and general location.

So far it's worked great, and I can save flights for future reference.

cheers

I need to get a new mobile :) That looks super.

The SPOT sattelite tracker is free (with a rebate) if you sign up for 2 years service with tracking ($150/year, $300 total)
It will leave a trail on a personal webpage you can set up, and will send Help and I'm OKmessages to friends, a 911 message
to emergency reponders. It is ideal for XC trips into the boonies.
