The earlier version SUSPended at the FAF because the FAA insisted.
It's better now.

Does it still refuse to sequence to the MAP if you don't cross the FAF
dead-on? With the V1 software, if you miss the FAF by more than a
very small amount, it keeps the FAF as the active waypoint. It
confused the hell out of me the first time it happened.


I don't know, Roy.
I'd *like* to say I never miss the FAF, though. :-)

Is the FAF a fly-over waypoint, instead of a fly-by?
If it's a fly-over, then maybe you HAVE to fly over it.
If that's true, then there's probably no change in version 2.0.
