Scenario, as happened today ! I made a turn before reaching a way point, only short by 0.5 mile

my Garmin 296 went ballistic, trying repeatedly to send me back to complete the route

would this happen with SD ? or would it just find the next leg of the route ?

Thanks tv

If you turn early, skydemon will still show you on the D.I. what track you need to get to your turning point, but will pick up your next leg as you approach it and then reflect the correct details for that leg. Alternatively, if the next leg is your final destination you could just do a 'direct to' and head straight to your destination. You can try it out for yourself by putting in a route and then go into the 'go flying' >'start simulator' within skydemon for free by downloading the trial version.
