Thanks for your timely response Steve,
And to tell you the truth what you suggested never actually came into mind :shock: :shock:

I'll be over here digging myself a nice sized hole to sit in lol

Hi Steve, I hope all is well :)

Are you still planning to include a fuel override (to remove any [fuel] inclusion in the .flt) as an option just like you are doing with [payload] as well?

Thx :D

Yes all per your requirements melleh! Top of the class as always! :ugeek: Heehee :D

It's in the Fuel Distribution drop down as "Defaults (.CFG)".

For payload, the Payload Quantity Units rotator button cycles through "Defaults (.CFG)" and shows a "." on the button.

These settings leave the .FLT section blank and input the default quantities into the IF Flight generated.

The zoom-in map of the approach is completed:

The Maps, Approaches and TOC/TOD code has all had a complete overhaul.

That looks great Steve! I've always thought a zoom button on the map would be useful!! :D

Any other changes to the cartographic aspects planned?

Cheers

hi Brent, rather nice of you to pop in, heehee. :D
That's the zoomed up destination end of the plan in the briefing found under the main route map. Trouble is, there's a never ending amount of accoutrements can enhance the maps, so I'll keep going back to them. General handling In the world map and clicking around has been improved.

Great - look forward to seeing the results of all your hard work. :)

You're right about mapping tweaks - I worked in cartography for 30 years!

Now that's something I'd have enjoyed! Well I'm not making too much fuss of the maps, I've tidied up a few things, but rather I'm making sure it all works as intended. Oh yes, I've also got a map in the briefing featuring the VORs and NDBs of the departure area.
