Display and use of Elevation

Postby kabong.steve » 11 Dec 2013, 05:00

Hi Petr,

I'm always needing to know or wanting to know the elevation of the runway or airport, especially in routes,

as an example, it would be great if the "nav item list" could show elevation where it currently shows notes (after the ICAO code), and even on the map screen where it shows the current wpt.

Thanks
Steve

1. Nav item list
RWY items could show threshold elevation on like APTs shows VHFs. Is it OK for you?

2. Route
When planning a route
- Add all WPTS
- Open edit dialog of the last WPT by swiping from the left to the right.
- Fill the APT altitude and select MSL
- When flying your route, altitude bug is set by route WPTs (if WPT has filled altitude). So if you or FIF switch to the last WPT you will see desired elev at the top of altitude strip.

Definitely that would work.

But i don't always add runway to Route, and not always sure which one until you get there.

I'll play with the route altitude settings and see how that suits

thanks
