First 'play' with SkyDemon! (Christmas present) It's quite a step up for me from a Chinagraph, Quarter Mill Topo,  Ruler, Douglas Protractor, Piece of String, a Whizz Wheel and Mark1 Eyeball.
It looks pretty good so far.
Is it possible to display/superimpose the tracks entered on the SkyDemon charts onto the satellite view? I couldn't find a way of doing this.
Thanks for any help or ideas

We will of course take this suggestion into consideration. We considered doing this at the outset, but decided to postpone it to verify that a significant number of users want it, and can explain the benefit. Our worry is that once we added the track, people would want obstacles, airspace, and eventually everything else. The goal of satellite view is to act as a reference and help to accurately position user waypoints compared to ground features; it isn't supposed to be a replacement for the main chart.
