Compare DUAT to DUATS, see which one works best for you. "JohnT." <rcav8r (AT) charter (DOT) net> wrote Quote: Any recommendations on DUATS software?

DUATS Golden Eagle Flight Prep is free, much improved over Cirrus and is fairly stable (don't rush the graphic overlays or it'll crash)... http://www.flightprep.com/rootpage.php?page=infogoldeneagle Its a 100 meg download from here: http://www.flightprep.com/download/GoldenEagleSetup.exe You'll need the update (17 megs) after installing, its available here: http://www.flightprep.com/download/GEDataUpdate.exe To have a CD sent to you, contact DUATS 1-800-345-3828...

Well the radar overlays are nice, just don't rush them. But you are right, never had a Cirrus crash...

Actually, I wasn't complementing Cirrus, just find it humorous that we are pleasantly surprised and even complementary when programs don't crash. I've been in the IT world since the late 70's, and recently started a new company that does computer forensic discovery for the legal profession. The tools we are using are unbelievably unstable. It appears (at least in this niche) that no one has invested in any QA - in fact I'm not sure they know what QA is. Imagine is our planes had the same QA as software development has!
