Hello,
I‌'m using SD V 3.9.5.18619 Android.
I‌s it possible to extend the line of the flightpath vector on the map or virtual radar to times ahead of 30 and 60 minutes?
I need this feature (optional) for position reports - request by ATC in the middle of nowhere (open water).

K‌ind regards
S‌iegfried‌

Actually, I can't think of one, sorry. There is no feature which will directly give you your approximate position in 30 or 60 minutes that I can think of, although you could play with the map ruler to get an answer within a few seconds.

Thank you for the hint. On ground no problem, I'll try it in bumpy air...

B‌ut back to the question please: ‌"I‌s it possible to extend the line of the flightpath vector on the map or virtual radar to times ahead of 30 and 60 minutes?" Is it a great fact to add an additional feature??

GS and Track should be already displayed. What Kind of Position reports are expect? "Next Position Report in 60 minutes at <Position>" or "... at <radial>, <xx> nm from <WPT>"?

Coordinates are expected, for example -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqueNkjPjEA
b‌ut without an autopilot in an small cockpit, max altitude 5.000ft, handling with large charts and ruler is a bit tricky 
s‌o a one-click-solution would be very helpful (f.e. a tap on the end of a 30/60-minute long flight path vector)
