You keep increasing the offset and end up flying a box pattern. Ah, OK. I had read about trans-Atlantic flights using an offset and assumed it was available in these WAAS boxes given their extreme accuracy and the increased chances of mid-airs on climb-outs and descents. It would be nice to use it on Victor airways, had they only offered offests in 1/10 mile increments. It would be nice to have victor airways in the box.... All the necessary components of Victor airways are in the box. What you want, I presume, is an airway database. I guess you have to go to a G-1000 to get that.;-)
