Hi Dave,
I've been using IdealFlight as my flight planner. It inserts into the plan four "approach" legs. PF3 tells me the final two legs are too short.
Can you tell me the best length for these final two legs as I approach my destination? If I know that I can then set a proper length in IdealFlight's settings.

Thank You, Jim H.

PF3 will warn you if waypoints are closer than 5 miles or the first waypoint is closer than 10 miles from the airport or the last waypoint is closer than 15 miles to your destination. These are only warmings and you do not have to change them, you can even turn the warning message off if you wish, although neither is recommended.

I don't know if my memory is getting worse as I get older...
...I just can't remember how it used to be!

Thank you, Dave. I can now ensure the length of the approach legs IdealFlight sets will meet PF3's requirements.

Best Regards, Jim
