Dave, is there any chance you could add a feature that would allow automatic closing/accepting of the various messages that pop up on the SN10 display inflight? Most just confirm an action that is pretty obvious (such as PEV logged or Inside the Start Area), or ask for the selection of a choice that also has an obvious selection (such as Make a Start). I'm thinking along the line of a 3 second timer after the message is displayed; if a choice is needed then the most critical option is automatically selected - as there is always the option to go back and change that choice later (for example, undo a start).

Perhaps make it a checkbox selectable option.

Having to fumble for the buttons during aero tow to acknowledge in the start and PEV is irritating, as are the in-out-in warnings when circling at the edge of a start circle. If the warning auto-cleared, one could just glance at the message and usually ignore it, or as required select the non-default option (while message is up or after).

Otherwise - still loving the SN10!

Cheers,

Kirk
