The user may transfer various Soaring Pilot databases to and from the PDA via the Transfer screen and the Soaring Pilot Terminal (SPTerm) utility. On the PC such databases are stored as simple text files which may be viewed and editted.
Flight data is written out in standard IGC format. SPTerm will suggest a file with a ".igc" extension.

Waypoint data is read in and written out using the "Cambridge/WinPilot" format. SPTerm will suggest and look for this information in a file with a ".dat" extension. Pre-made waypoint files in this format are available for most of the major soaring locations from Worldwide Soaring Turnpoint Exchange.
