Overall my experience has been excellent - whenever you think "I wonder if it does that", it seems to perform pretty much everything I wanted it do do, and intuitively. The only thing I would like to see is a (planned) heading indicator being a selectable field at the top of the screen alongside track, GS etc. I have been using the IPad on a kneepad with a fold-over clipboard which leaves the top inch or so of the screen visible, gives you some writing space and keeps greasy hands away from the screen... OK, I can bug the planned heading in the aircraft DI/HSI or lift the kneepad cover to look at the SD HSI or Log, so it's a small point but to my mind it's a good way to keep flying heading/time without getting tempted to follow the magenta line.

To change the map orientation, whilst in navigation mode tap the SkyDemon orb at the top and then Chart. You'll see the different options in there (which are North Up, Track Up or Course Up)
