The method you describe only appends a turnpoint to the end . I did find I could change a turnpoint by MenuTaskToolsMapselect zoom(guess what zoom you need and click on i)t(click and drag turnpoint to new location)OK. That's only 8 clicks, certainly better than adding the new and deleting the old from the list which takes around 15 clicks minimum. Typing in the name of the waypoint is *really* a poor way of doing it.





Strange how people differ. I would not contemplate using that technique which would seem far too fiddly to do in the air. For me typing the three letter description on top of the replaced turnpoint is easy and not fiddly. The same system works for replacing or adding. The screen keyboard is large - so long as you have a 5 inch screen. The ways to do it in WP and SYM are almost the same. Touching the screen near where you want to go to and touching GOTO also sounds like a very easy way to navigate somewhere, as you can do in SYM pan mode.

I suppose it does depend. I fly over a large area (roughly 50,000 sq miles), current turnpoint database has something like 140 turnpoints. I have no idea what some of them even are, how they were entered, how spelled, etc. - all a prerequisite to typing them in!
