I have a hard time finding nearby navaids (VOR, NDB, etc) or important waypoints such as airports, etc. in SkyDemon. Many nav systems have a "nearest" function, a list of items by distance from a position. I would expect SkyDemon has a similar feature, but I cannot seem to find it. Any advice?

Thanks,
-- Terrence

You have that at the bottom of the pilotlog, the nearest navaids will be updated as you fly.

Oh, that's a great feature -- this is what I was looking for. Thanks for pointing this out.
