There are any number of combinations of presentations. My favorite one is a split screen with data on one side (bearing to next waypoint, ground speed, ETA, etc) and with a moving map on the other side showing terrain, track,obstacles, etc. I used to fly on B-36's and this gadget will do more in an instant that all three navigators could do during the whole flight. Amazing. Clarence I'm amazed at the new stuff. I like the split screen as well. nice to be able to see stats as your moving along. I was air crew on C-47, C-54, P-3 & HU-16. Didn't get to do much with navigation. Spent my time with a slide rule figureing out weight and ballance of cargo & personell, fuel loads, etc. Bill
