Status: New Owner: ---- Labels: Type-FeatureRequest New issue 518 by h....@hy...: LNAV course on Map using Great Circle Course http://code.google.com/p/flightgear-bugs/issues/detail?id=518 When the distance between way point is larger such as between RJCN and UHPP over 700NM, LNAV course on Map application is drawn as direct line of Mercator map. This causes discrepancy of course heading and ship heading and deviate from the course. Eventually ship arrives next way point but we get the deviation until that time. Could we have Great Circle Course between waypoint? Best method is change the Map to sphere. Then we can fly even over the pole on the map. http://www.flightgear.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=13732 |
