Looking forward to seeing this Dropbox. If someone there is reading this, please release this code in any way you like, even if you think it's too rushed or ugly, i'm sure the community can clean it up.

I've been trying to find out if using one of these in a GNSS receiver would help with accuracy. Anyone here know? Clearly the clock on a receiver is well disciplined, but does that mean a better oscillator like this wouldn't help?

The captain makes the same call on every flight. The plane and passangers are her responsibility regardless of the situation. Edit - also the call is made continuously. They can back out any time.
