The presence of an accelerometer in the iPad (and iPhone) create real issues for its using in gliding, particularly gliding competitions. I have had demonstrated to me the iPhone operating as an artificial horizon. An AH, as a blind flying instrument, is illegal under the current competition rules.

So what was the demo? Doing this on the ground is exteremely unlikely to be a valid test of a flight instrument.
