Steve,

On page 3-6 of the IFD-540 Pilot Guide it has a description of a "Tower Zone (estimated Class D)". It says that it will show the "Tower zone boundary if known, otherwise 5nm ring estimating Class D boundary".

The basic Class D is 5 STATUTE MILES, not NAUTICAL. I'm not sure if this is just a typo in the manual, or if you are painting the rings too big.
