Turnpoint Directory
Thanks to John Leibacher and many other volunteers, an amazing source of turnpoint files can be found at:
http://acro.harvard.edu/SOARING/JL/TP
To obtain files for WinPilot, do the following:
1. Select your soaring site.
2. Go to "Files formatted for downloading and importing into your
programs".
3. Select "WinPilot", and save the file to your PC by
right-clicking on the link and selecting ‘Save Target As…’ .
4. Using ActiveSync, copy the file to '\My Documents' folder on your Windows CE device.
5. Start WinPilot Simulator, go into Menu.Files, press the '...' button
located in 'Turnpoints' group, and point WinPilot to the file that you have
copied in step 4 (if necessary, you can also change the default Home airport
here).
The turnpoint file format is identical to one used by CAI flight recorders, with the exception that there is no limit on the number of turnpoints.
