Correct.
I snapped the pic after a few minutes of us flying along and seeing the 13.5 value count down from something in the 14.x range to 13.5 and then stabilize.
My instructor commented that I better take good notes so that I can ask the question right, and so I decided to shot a few pictures of the screen. (I also grabbed the full data logs today.)
I think I still have some Garmin to unlearn.
My main confusion is why that value EVER changed. Was it measure "leg distance" or "leg distance remaining"? I'm assuming the later and it changed a bit as we flew through part of that turn. Or maybe not.
I'm quite happy to have the IFD iPad simulator.
Thanks,
Jeremy
