I bet your passengers and employer hope you make best use of all the
information technology makes available in the cockpit when you are at work, Tom

For myself, I am not interested in any variometer cruise modes so am
content with my B400 and B40 in our second glider. Interestingly
both Bruce Taylor and myself seem to muddle along OK with sink tone disabled!

Mark,
The idea is to fly in air that's going up. You should not be hearing
the sink sound much. If you are it is time to go somewhere else and
be in cruise mode while doing this when you won't hear the sink sound.

poorly. It is extremely important when trying to center weak and
broken thermals which is why I like a vario with a sink sound as
it provides full information on the bad air as well as the good
air while doing this.
And on that note, I'd like to congratulate you for the B50, which,
as installed in AUGC's H205
Club Libelle, had the most inspiringly depressing sink sound I've
ever had the misfortune to
hear.
Excellent work, well done :-)
