Hello everybody,
I suggest not to let the letter M just on the RW length when you open a microlight info map window. It´s impossible to read the length numbers ! Even on normal RW, the runway number is often hiden by the name and ident These infos should be on a side of the screen, just to remember that you are effectivly on a M RW , or with the AD name but ont on the runway itself !
I fly with an Ultralight and this would be really better.

Tank you again for your great job.
Bino

Hello, could you elaborate on what you mean by a "microlight info map window"? If we know which product you're using and how you access the feature you're describing, we can take a look and see if there's anything we can do to improve it.

Help Tim,
I am using an Ipad Mini 16Go, it works really great even with the inside GPS.
When I prepare a navigation or even in flight, if I make a long touch on any microlight field, shown in green on the map, a window appears.
The first item below the name of this airfield is a line called "informations"
If I touch this line, it open à schematic map (as there is no AIP map) , the RW is a green strip and just in the center, you have the RW length just with a big M on it, so it is impossible to read the length , especially while flying.

Ah, I see. Unfortunately there isn't much we can immediately do about this. You still need an icon on the screen, really, so that you can touch it. Can you not see the runway information in detail at the side of the screen, under the Approach information?
