SaFly tracking system from D-S-X

Dear friends, for the World Gliding Championship the SaFly tracking system from D-S-X will be fielded. It is a new system that works not only to transmit the flight data from the gliders through GPRS and Satellite networks for tracking, but also works as an emergency location system. Moreover it is going to be an IGC flight recorder.
You can fond more information about SaFly at the following link: http://www.d-s-x.net/ 
For this unique system, that offers more functionalities to glider pilots, in the occasion of the 31st  FAI World Gliding Championship, we can propose a special offer to you: during the championship you can buy this unit directly from us and for one month after the event you can order it at a special price.

520 Euros (model with Satellite modem)

If you are interested in buying it and having it on board during the whole competition so that you will be visible to everybody watching the competition, in real time, you shall order it and buy it now.

Thanks to the cooperation with our partners, it will be possible to watch the online moderated television broadcast  directly on internet through the streaming and on the projector screen in the airfield hangar. For this purpose it will be used the Condor Viewer program, which is offered by the Condor firm, and together with the high-quality scenery of Slovakia (author Miloš Koch) we believe that spectators will experience unforgettable moments.
Internet spectators will be able to watch the competition also in the 2D and 3D sceneries based on Google Earth ® and, for the more demanding, there will be the possibility to follow the competition in real time with the 3D Silent Wings Viewer connected to the DSX server.

For the WGC 2010 there will be also a dedicated WebTV channel for the Championship, broadcasting videos all the time.
The overall display image of the contestants will also be created by the online competition monitor, a dedicated computer program developed directly at the airfield of Prievidza, connected to the tower, thanks to which it is possible to see which glider is still in the air, which glider is landed „at home“ and which has outlanded, with exact position.
