"Bravo8500" wrote in message ups.com... They all have nearest, but I've never seen one with steepest descent. It may not be so trivial to provide steepest descent with no obstructions on the path. And if you take wind into account then the aircraft may well glide "more steeply" towards an airport that's not the initial "first pick" of the GPS. Perhaps a better option is to have the current glide ratios and glide ration to target get up on an 'emergency options' configured page of the GPS?
