Hi,

I would like to purchase Skydemon, but there is one thing that is holding me off. I tested Jeppesen Mobile Flitedeck, Garmin Pilot and Air Navigatioin Pro and Skydemon intensely. I like Skydemon with all it´s features the best. But the only thing that is missing and is for me absolute essential and that it is the bearing indicator. I don´t mean just showing it on the map or the HSI, I meant showing it in the upper row next to the distance to a waypoint in numbers of degree.
I don´t know one GPS application ever since I am flying, that doesn´t have this feature. And the is a reason for it. Because it is one of the basics, that every GPS must have.
For example when I am flying and I am off course to my next waypoint, I look on the GPS and read the bearing, put my heading bug on the course and fly to the waypoint. Or even when I am on course, I read the bearing sometimes just to check my compass.

I know that this was discussed before but and I understand, that you can´t fulfill every single whish of just one user. But please think about it again, it would make your program just perfect. Skydemon does not have to fear, by adding  a feature, that all the other programs have, not to be any different any more. I am sure that by how far Skydemon came by now, other programs try to copy it, because it is so good.

I am sure people are using it on the the compass rose and are dragging the rose to the screen so they can see it if they are more than 40 or 50° away from the bearing. But on the other hand it would be much more convenient to look at that given the degree number and turn the airplane to that course. I say that wind in this moment does not play that much of a role. Say I fly to a waypoint and stop over a certain place and do a couple of turns because of what reason ever and I want to continue my flights to the given waypoint I could so easily see the bearing and head to it.

Or say I'm just flying around my home airport and I mark the airport that I took off as my next way point then I will always see very quickly the bearing I have to turn to get back to the airport. I really think this is used by so many pilots especially if they are using are a fixed install GPS in the aircraft and they are flying around in the vicinity of their home airport.
