I wonder if this could be incorporated (or interfaced) to the current waypoint
management code. And, for the pilots on the list, do some GPS units also
calculate elevations to plug in for VNAV operation, fuel estimation, etc?
Yet another thought that seems to get mentioned here occasionally: a nearest
airport function.
Yes, the "Garmin GPS III Pilot" does have a nearest airport function. The algorithm for finding the nearest airport would be similar to the algorithm finding the nearest METAR station.
