LNM beta Related info in flight plan windows

Recommended Posts

I have downloaded the latest beta release of LNM and I see a new column called Related Ident / Freq / Dist /Bearing is available but nothing is shown in it and I don't understand how to enable it

This is used by procedures. It contains distances and bearings to navaids like an ILS or VOR which allows you to cross-check your position or which are used to define a maneuver.

Here is an example where a VOR is used as related navaid for a SID. Given are ident, frequency, distance and radial which define the three waypoints in the arc. Note that the related VOR is forced to display with the flight plan even if VORs are disabled in the map view.

All this information will be added to the manual which was not updated for the beta yet.

Can you have a manually added VOR to establish a fix in the flight plan ?

Nope but you can still add any position as a flight plan waypoint/fix.
