Mostly the ipad agrees with what my 720 reports, but in have on several occasions seen clearly way wrong and/or very rapidly changing.
Such as climb rates of 6000 feet per minute.


Anyone have similar experiences ?

This will be a common problem if using the iPad's internal GPS. An external antenna, or use of an ADSB device, would probably clear this up.
