Here are two pictures. Caernarfon and Blackpool. Please ignore the squiggles around Blackpool as I didnt want to delete the tracks off my 296.









I hope these help.

Would anyone care to share a screenshot of how the 296 depicts all runways at once?

i am new to skydemon and i have to say that i wish the extended runway centre lines were similar to the garmin 296 which shows all runways as you approach the field without cluttering the map.

I agree with having automatic selection as default, with the possibility to override this selection manually.

I have to totally agree on manual selection as well. Helps with working out how you are or would like to join the circuit.

I agree that the manual option is an excellent suggestion

Is there no further comment on this one. Should I stop banging on about it. I can't see how a manual override would in any way spoil the current automatic function. It would just add a bit more flexibility to runways were they are close together such as 28 and 31 at Blackpool. For most of the approach to the airfield it is showing an extended centreline to 31 when I know I will be going to 28. Being able to say I know I am actually going to 28 would helpy you line up immensely and I agree with the previous comment about mile markers too. That would be lovely.



I promise I won't post any more comments on this but I really think it would be a very good improvement for the airfields with 6 or 8 runways.

Actually that's probably a better solution than my manual suggestion. Auto first then an override.
