Hi,

I would like to purchase Skydemon, but there is one thing that is holding me off. I tested Jeppesen Mobile Flitedeck, Garmin Pilot and Air Navigatioin Pro and Skydemon intensely. I like Skydemon with all it´s features the best. But the only thing that is missing and is for me absolute essential and that it is the bearing indicator. I don´t mean just showing it on the map or the HSI, I meant showing it in the upper row next to the distance to a waypoint in numbers of degree.
I don´t know one GPS application ever since I am flying, that doesn´t have this feature. And the is a reason for it. Because it is one of the basics, that every GPS must have.
For example when I am flying and I am off course to my next waypoint, I look on the GPS and read the bearing, put my heading bug on the course and fly to the waypoint. Or even when I am on course, I read the bearing sometimes just to check my compass.

I know that this was discussed before but and I understand, that you can´t fulfill every single whish of just one user. But please think about it again, it would make your program just perfect. Skydemon does not have to fear, by adding  a feature, that all the other programs have, not to be any different any more. I am sure that by how far Skydemon came by now, other programs try to copy it, because it is so good.

Happy Landings an greetings from Bavaria ( www.edmy.de )

Timwatson -- Just for the record, I started learning to fly in 1963 on Tiger Moths at Fairoaks, got my licence (eventually) in 1969 and I hold IMC, Night and Aerobatic ratings. As you will realise, GPS was a distant dream, and more the stuff of science fiction when I started flying, so I have seen it progress from its clunky beginnings to the current state of the art offerings. In addition to using SD, I also own, and still use (ocasionally), a Bendix King Skymap IIIc, so I'm not without some appreciation of these matters.
