VOR Radial
Posted: 03 Dec 2013, 10:29
Dear Pitr,
I am using FiF as a "backup" solution in the cockpit. It is just GREAT!
We are doing the normal flight routing procedures with onboard systems, but as we usually have to report to our ATC at certain distances from a specific VOR/DME system I have the following question:
You have the very nice feature of "POSITION INFORMATION", where e.g. I can see my BEARING (VOR TO value) etc. Our ATC usually wants to hear on which radial (VOR FROM) we currently are. So then I have to calculate the opposite vector of the BEARING value. That is no big deal, but sometimes one is just very busy in the cockpit, so reading it immediately would be great.
Would it be possible to make the RADIAL value directly available? Maybe even chooseable in the general screen boxes?
Kind regards,
Laotse
