Subject: | REASON FOR IPAD AND IPHONE FAILURE IN FLIGHT |
Hi All
Currently flying back from Gibraltar. Three Europa aircraft flying together experience
similar issue. Just finished research.
REASON FOR IPAD AND IPHONE FAILURE IN FLIGHT
Be aware
Research now confirms (citation Apple Support) if you operate iOS devices where
the ambient temperature exceeds 35 C , the high-temperature conditions cause
the device to change its behavior to regulate its temperature. On this Europa
trip we been experiencing 40 C!
Higher ambient temperature conditions and activities cause the device to alter
performance and behaviour. These conditions include:
1. Leaving the device in the plane on a hot day.
2. Leaving the device in direct sunlight for an extended period of time. Under
the Europa canopy is a killer.
3. Extra workload beyond normal tolerance. We are demanding more from the device
when using it as the primary preferred GPS device. Using certain features this
feature exasperates an already high stress situation.
If the interior temperature of the device exceeds the normal operating range, the
device will protect its internal components by attempting to regulate its temperature.
IT SHUTS DOWN.
Happily the robust Garmin Aera in my Mono and the Garmin 496 in the TRI are made
of sterner stuff. They continued working. Those pieces of kit together with
up to date paper maps were invaluable.

Having checked the paricipants list to find out so far only 5 Europa's are on it,
I would like to give this thread a little bump as a reminder to anyone who
has not yet registered for this great event.
Hope to see man of you at Texel this year :D

Marcel, Unfortunately I am committed to a non flying event in Belgium
throughout the end of August and beginning of September.
