Method for saving created track as PATs Flight PatternFlight Range and Bearing info at Way-Point 1
- PATs would then reside on MAC/LINUX/PC- PATs would still require network - example pattern number 21 (Earl pattern) add new time/lat/lon -> updated kml
Please report all enhancements found to Bob [email protected]
PATs KML has Range/Bearing info Add to PATs pickpattern.js file
