[FEATURE] Radar Altimeter #83

Open decaff42 opened 1 year ago

decaff42 commented 1 year ago

Feature Description Provide the option toggle the altitude in the HUD or instrument panel to show radar altimeter (height above ground) or the current height above sea level.

How would this function work? Compare the current altitude above sea level and subtract the current elevation below the aircraft.

Why is this feature important? Enables more realistic landings at elevated airports, and serves as a good alert to pilots flying near mountains.

Any examples as to how this feature would work? Like the current IAS/ TAS speed toggle in the in-game control menu, do the same for radar and normal altitude.
