I would love the ability to mark a spot on the map and have an alert of some type play to signal I am at the point. 

I was imagining setting a point on a runway for a go/no-go decision and having an alert sound when I get to it. 

I can invision selection a point on the map with a tap or long tap, selection "set marker", being able to select a type of mark(waypoint, alert point, ext...).

When I get within a preset(either in settings or defined in each alert point) distance of the marker the sound would play and maybe the whole screen could flash red.

This could even be extended to landing and allowing a MIN SPEED alert to sound.

 

Thanks,

Don

I like the idea of a marker for an abort point during takeoff.  However I think you may want to a countdown to that point (or place marker prior to abort point) because after that location you no longer can abort safely
