Cool, and instructive. What might be a helpful add is current altitude (MSL/AGL) display, particularly starting altitude.
Very cool. Helps a lot in visualizing final glides that need to clear mountain passes, ridges, etc. "If I can clear this pass what's my glide home?" kind of questions.
I agree with Eric. I kept wanting to know what's the altitude and clearance above the surrounding terrain as the glide crossed ridgelines in particular.
