I browsed the on-line manual and I thought it said ZERO MC which is not the implementation I would want. I forgot to add in my previous post: If you really want to have "real time" feedback in GPS_LOG for whether you can clear a mountain range on course, you would not be looking at the GLIDE footprint, but at forward looking terrain plot. This gives you glide path at your current speed, wind... plotted with the ground profile. Got me through several passes that I would have never attempted without that information. Henryk Birecki
