[balloon-makers] Looking for some software BETA testers

[Steve Griffin]

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I have been trying to revive some long since used programming
skills over the past week and have part developed a piece of software in Visual
Basic to calculate distances and geometric altitudes in accordance with the FAI
/ CIA requirements.

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Â 

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I am looking for a few people to try and get the software to
misbehave. I would particularly like to get some of the record breakers amongst
you to try it as you are likely to be the most common users of this.

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Â 

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>If you are interested go to <a rel="nofollow"

The program can be installed from there. It has built in automatic update
facilities so any changes that are made will automatically be downloaded to you
copy.

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The help facilities are not yet implemented but should be in
the next couple of days if I can figure out how to code it – uuuugh.

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Â 

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Some basic instructions. 

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Â 

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The “A” toolbar button and File/New/Altitude
menu option will open a new window to start an altitude calculation.

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>The “D” toolbar button and File/New/Distance menu
option will open a new window to start a distance calculation

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>You can save your entered data using the disk toolbar button
or File Save menu

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>You can print by using the print toolbar button or file
print menu

<span style='font-size:10.0pt;
