It's great to get a digital readout and all with GPS. But a lower-tech option for feedback on ground reference/box position, etc. I have used a rear-facing keychain camera like in this clip (tape & velcroed just behind the canopy) and cross-reference it with known landmarks in Google Earth. This method also wings-level readouts - which you don't get w/GPS alone. Cheers, Bill
