Special topic: Un-coupling Pitch & Roll in AMOR v. 3.30 (version not well functioning yet).

Improvements of program AVM by Jean Eisenecker in 2017-2018: The versions AVM 1.0 and AVM 1.5 were both not satisfactory for routine applications with AMOR. Both program versions produced errorneous values for the spiral height (dY) of menardiform shells in keel view. In 2017-2018 Jean Eisenecker improved AVM and produced version AVM 2, which generated correct values for spiral height. AVM 2 was implemented in LabView 14 and runs on the PC for System AMOR 2.
