Hello all,
This is the 1st ISG1 1.4 Beta Update has now been sent to the Beta testers. So its in the home stretch pretty much now.
This update mostly adds a Smiths style FMS and a Boeing 737-500 style Navigation Display.
3 new Gauges.
----------

- HW_B737_ND - Boeing 737-500 Honeywell style Navigation display

We could use 2 or 3 more Beta testers. If you're interested drop me an email at
'alstoer1@compuserve.com'
Note: 'No promises' on Beta selections.
Note: I'll be spending some time on the Trimble 2101 GPS mentioned earlier during the Beta period. But it'd be a real stretch if that got included in this update, but we'll try.
Regards.
Ernie.
