During a VFR-flight i had to divert routing to the destination airport as my planed route was limited due to weather conditions. So i thought i just gonna press with my fingers on the remaining leg and pull it to the new Waypoints. Done. But this way it was not possible. So i used the direct to button to my destination airport, but I still was not able to set Waypoints by “pulling” the leg. Is the only way to do that during flight, to start planning a new route? I think, to delete and enter new waypoints, while flying, is not safe. There should be an easier way? Any advise how to handle such case in a safe way during flight?

Then you only have to touch the leg once and drag it to your waypoints... Best regards Dave S - G-BULJ Edited 7/23/2018 1:25:55 PM by g.bulj
