Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: gps speedDouwe, GPS indicated your speed over the ground. It is really nice when you're cominghome from Wisconsin and sometimes it says 90 or 95 in a Pietenpol. Likewiseit is laborious westbound sometimes when it says horrible things like 50, 55....Mike C.________________________________________________________________________________
