Is it possible to display as a data-block the UP/DWN TIMER function? All I find is Flight Timer...
Utility Page with this timer is useful, but so much more useful if displayed on MAP page as a Data Block like during a Timed Approach.
Perhaps a future enhancement... Tom Wolf |

That's a good idea, to expand on the idea, perhaps if you click on the datablock, it gives you a larger screen to setup the timer(s), that you can close when it's all set. It could provide an aural alert in addition to flashing the datablock so that it is more noticeable than a CAS alert.
To get fancy, it could pre-populate the timer based on the approach loaded and the groundspeed, maybe even have a setting to automatically start counting as you pass the FAF.
