Hi Tim,

Just a note to say that the new Mountain View mode of relative terrain is an exceptional safety feature that will save a life or two over time. Well done to you & your team to what looks like a good implementation.

Another member suggested some TAWS alerts which I back strongly (however, optional for strict VFR pilots). Maybe a use for the new barometric sensor in the iPhones/iPads.

Well done guys!

Baro is irrelevant for terrain anyway. It's not as if the ground changes position based upon the air pressure!
