The app lets tow pilots to save their tow flights quckly and easily. Just start the timer before take off and after landing and the important flight data will be saved throught the internet into a reserved database. The app is still under development! If you are a tow pilot and you are interested on trying the full client-server system just email me! I will let you try the app and the online database! The App can be used as DEMO with the following unlock code: BB66C6217465F20FFA04 which sets the app fully functional for 10 minutes (at least 1 tow). The demo can be used to check if the app is fully functional with the garmin device (expecially new ones) and to check graphs, menus and statistics in the remote database. Email me to have a free limited in time guest account on the remote database!!!
