Distance to active waypoint

[johnbla 31]

Hi Alex, is it possible to get the distance to the active waypoint as you are flying along? I had a search but found nothing. Thanks in advance, John

Hi John,

this and much more can be found on the tab "Progress" in the window "Simulator Aircraft". You can show this window in the menu "Window" or by pressing Alt+5.

Many thanks for the quick reply. One more quick question if that's OK. Is it possible to split the view so that the map is shown on two thirds of the screen and the simulator details is on the remaining third of the screen. Once again, many thanks Alex.

You can rearrange, open, close and resize all the dock/sub-windows. See here about docking windows.

The search window is too expansive. I'd close this while flying and/or disable unneeded search options which allows the map to grow bigger.
