October 31, 201114 yr Just guessing, but I notice you have a top of descent not too far ahead of the step climb. There is a point where the distance remaining to descent will cancel the step up, and this could vary with time if winds are changing. Dan Downs KCRP

That is a provision for fluctuating fuel values etc on your page. Cosmetics... ==================================== E M V Precision Manuals Development Group ====================================
