Display Computed Instead of Published Airway Radials on Charts — Airways
published on government and Jeppesen paper enroute charts are based on the
published magnetic variations of the facilities defining the airways. These published
variations are updated on a set schedule and may vary from the actual variation by
several degrees.
Select this check box and FliteDeck computes a more accurate variation for the
navaids. The course shown for airways may vary slightly from what is published on
paper charts.
Range Ring
The range ring is a circle around the aircraft symbol. The range ring displays the
distance from the aircraft to the outer edge of the range ring and indicates how long
it will take to get there.
• Select the Hide check box to turn off the range ring.
• Select the Auto Size check box to set the range ring size based on your
zoom level.
• Select the Fixed Size check box and type the radius (in nautical miles) if you
want the range ring to remain a specific size.
