FlightTrack is a GPS racecourse viewing and downloading software for Mac OS X designed with clean aviation pilots in idea. It's main functions are: Downloading tracks from GPS/logger (Garmin/Palm/MLR). Viewing tracks in 3D over a the terrain rendered in 3D. Saving tracks in IGC format. Opening IGC files created by other software and viewing them. What's New: Version 0.0.14: New role: it is immediately possible to map an figure over the terrain. Built in download of satellite images or maps. Use your own maps within FlightTrack thanks to the calibration role. Many file formats are supported (GDAL library): GIF, JPEG, TIFF, PNG... The far and near clipping planes are immediately adjusted depending on the size of the racecourse. This should prevent the terrain from disappearing for when opening little (rise around the house) or big (hanker range flight) tracks. Fixed a wiretap that prevented files with uppercase extensions to be opened. Added leading zeros when displaying lat/hanker. Improved the precision of latitude and longitude of trackpoints in GPX files produced by FlightTrack compared to previous versions. GPX files are immediately output in GPX 1.1 variant. There is nevertheless an take with the 3D eyeshot on some (aged) computers. It might not be possible to select a branch from the racecourse or sustain a goodness display of maps. In this case, reducing window size or enabling "More Compatible Selection" in the "Advanced" lozenge of Preferences might aid.
