WinPilot is the most powerful glider computer software available,  designed to be used  with an external GPS data source. It provides  friendly user interface taking advantage of  high resolution 240*320 graphic display with Colour or 4 (or 16) levels of gray, that is also touch sensitive. The most suitable hardware is the palm-sized Compaq iPaq computer powered by Microsoft Windows Pocket PC operating system.  Among the many features of WinPilot, competition pilots will enjoy the ability to fly close to the border of restricted airspace without entering it, clear representation of the task starting gate, detailed final glide computation around all the turnpoints , and an easy to use,  yet very powerful task editor, that allows performing quick "what-if" calculations, that are especially important during AAT and POST tasks. Recreational pilots will also enjoy the increased safety and peace of mind coming from always knowing which airports and landing sites are within reach from the current position and altitude (without having to press a single button).     The very rich set of features in a package that is very simple to use is a trademark of WinPilot and it sets a new standard on how a pilot-friendly device should look. Also, the fact that the program runs on off-the-shelf hardware means that buying it won't break your bank account. And because, with the Pocket PC operating system Microsoft provides an excellent set of tools to manipulate contents of the Windows Palmtop devices, upgrading the program can by done simply by dragging a file from one folder to another.     There are two  versions of the program: WinPilot Advanced and Pro.  WinPilot Advanced works with NMEA devices that output either pressure or GPS altitude (see list of WinPilot compatible loggers), and WinPilot PRO works with devices that additionally output climb and true airspeed data.
