SPOT tracking

I just created a link so that anybody can track our progress with the SPOT messenger. This will usually be us flying around, but could be hiking, driving, or just exploring. People can use this to see when we're getting close to arriving if we're stopping by to visit, to track our adventures, or to see that we got home safely. The link is a new gadget to the left of this page, just click on the link and it should take you to a new page to track our progress.

Flight Tracking

This is pretty cool, you can track my airplane when I go flying (see the link below). It looks like it bases it's info from flight controllers. This means that I'm only tracked when I'm on an IFR flight plan, and maybe tracked when I'm on a VFR flight plan with flight following. Since I'm not currently legal, I don't file IFR even when it's severe clear. I hope to regain my currency this summer.

By the way, the last flight that was recorded (as of 19 Jan 08), was the flight on 26 Dec 07, when Maynard and Duaine flew it from Detroit to Manitowoc. They flew it over for me to test fly and have a pre-purchase inspection completed. Since that all went well, I bought the airplane on the 27th. Merry X-mas to me!
