Rate of Climb/Decent to Waypoint Display

[kabong.steve]

My garmin GPS shows a Rate of Decent needed to get the airport/waypoint selected as the destination.

This is useful to know when to start descending or what rate of descent is needed, or choosing when to start descent to match rate of descent wanted.

An equivalent available as an on-screen would be awesome.

For me, the rate of descend should be to "circuit height (1000ft)" for airports/runways etc, rather than ground (height of waypoint), but can live without if to ground..

Another idea would be to automatically include TOC and TOD as waypoints when planning a route if the data is available inside the airplane configuration, wind and the cruising altitude is also set.

Rate of decsent to any navigation point:

FIF has the rate of decent

At you screen display RRD Required rate of Descent if you want to see value. You can also see analog version of RRD at the Terran screen (altitude strip)

If you want to use vertical navigation to the desired WPT you must do this:
1. Find the WPT in the Navigation database. For example tap WPT at the map, then tap at its name
2. Click at the WPT icon at the left side.
4. Fill the Vertical nav dialog box.

TOC, TOD - I put them on my ToDo list
