When you fly, as a pilot or a passenger? I assumed passenger but then this doesn't make much sense to me; so you must be a pilot.

Pilot. I rent 1970s aircraft so it's nice to have a backup set of avionics.

I should mention, this is also a fun thing to have on airline flights as you can see the route you're flying, other planes around, speed, altitude, where you are in line for the runway, etc. There are even free alternatives to foreflight for android (avare) so you only have to make the Stratux hardware.
