Alerts

I'd like a change made to "Inhibit - Entire Flight" so that "Entire Flight" means that the alert is inhibited as long as the iFly (700 in my case) is left on. The inhibits could be reset at power on (or re-entry into the aviation software) or if requested by the user to reset or cancel all inhibited alerts.

Problem is when I am driving in the car trying out the iFly 700 and Skyradar-L, every time I stop (go below some speed), another flight made when I start up again. Seems to me that this also might be a problem if you were practicing landings that the system would reset all of the alerts that were inhibited after you land and go up again (either when stopping or going below a set speed). Seems to me that the user would really want all alerts inhibited for the entire flight to remain inhibited when taking off again.

Could it be that I am not inhibiting the alerts properly?

Re: Alerts

"Entire Flight" does mean until the unit reboots. The flight-timer logic is the only thing that will reset at certain speeds. What sort of alerts are not inhibiting?

The SUA and TFR alerts around DC keep popping up even after inhibiting. I'll have to reconfirm but the terrain warning still alerts after being turned off.
