Hi all. I am wondering if you also miss a feature like the high-end glass cockpit features like the range circle related to fuel wind and current speed.

I have e-mailed Tim and asked for a feature, apparently I am the only one who has asked for this so I am starting a poll investigate if there are other like me that would like this feature.

This is what I would like to see:

In the planning mode, I would like to see a range circle of the aircraft in use visible on the map. This would relate to the current planned fuel, the wind and the speed (in the aircraft profile). A function with no wind would be good. Anouter circle for the reserve range would also be good.

In the flying mode. I would like to have the same information, but calculated by the current speed, so I will be able to see estimated range, based on the current speed, wind and fuel.

There might be other ways to do this but this is roughly, what I would like to see.

Please vote yes, if you find this to be a god idea and a feature you wish to have implemented in Skydemon.

EDIT: I triedto make a poll but did not succeed

                     G1000 uses the fuel flow sensor - it doesn't guess!
