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

Last week I have flewn from seppe (The Netherlands) to Head corn (uk). The route i had planned with Skydemon was via dover tot calais and then to headcorn. however, when we where overhead Oostende we diceded to head direct Dover. I tried to put this in my flightplan, but I could't figure it out how to do it. When i pointed my finger at dover and choose: Direct to..it wil show me te way to dover but it deletes the rest of the route as well ( part to Headcorn). When i choose: append to route. It wil leave the route to Calais and Dover in the screen aswell. Is there a simple way to direct to a certainpoint in an already planned route.


This feature is planned for a future release - you'll be able to use the 'Direct To' function to jump to a point further in your flightplan.
