ANN Welcomes Oshkosh 2004 Major Sponsor ControlVision!

Can We Pick Cool Sponsors... Or What?

OK... you've heard our reports about all the work we're doing and how grateful we are that ten really cool companies ponied up to the task of sponsoring this immense effort. With nearly a dozen of the best fly-writers in the biz to take care of, ya just gotta know that this is a massive and expensive undertaking... heck, the beer bill alone... well, never mind.

It ain't a pretty story.

However, we're truly thrilled that long-time ANN Sponsor ControlVision is helping us out this year...especially when they're making so much cool news of the their own!

The message from Control Vision is clear: There's no excuse to not have datalink weather in your cockpit. Sure, years ago when Radar and Stormscopes were state-of-the-art the numbers weren't exactly compelling: $40,000 for a radar system, $6,000 or more for a Stormscope. For that kind of money you could buy a new airplane.

A talented group of engineers at Control Vision decided that NEXRAD, METARs and TAFs shouldn't be restricted to weather terminals at FBOs but should accompany a pilot throughout his flight. It should be fast, reliable, easy to use and above all AFFORDABLE.

That's how Anywhere Wx came to be.

Award-winning Anywhere Map is one of the finest moving map GPS systems available to pilots. Its features rival those of $20,000 panel-mounted displays and exceed most. It's now available on HP iPAQ Pocket PCs, Anywhere XP, a Windows XP version of Anywhere Map for tablet and laptop PCs, and the new micro-tablet RAVEN, described as a super PDA but actually much more.
