<![CDATA[Top of Descent marker]]>I imagine marking TOD on the screens was probably a bit flashy for the 80's when everyone was so good at maths but does the Starship have a way to mark TOD on any of the 14 screens or am I going to have use my brain and calculate it myself?

It'll give you a needed descent rate and you can watch that count up as you get closer.

Not because I'm lazy but because safety is a real issue and flying in the sim is not as easy as in real life - SayIntentions didn't clear me down quick enough after I told them I was ready to descend (they kept me too high for too long) and I ended up testing the max descent rate of the Starship, only to forget completely to lower the gear... Thank god for simulators.
