With the latest beta, the SP option became available without the TGP, but it is not working. SP does not SP, the cursor does not return to in front of the aircraft but instead stays centered on the selected waypoint.

So, contrary to the changelog, it is NOT available without a TGP, instead, it got removed completely.

This is exactly what is no longer working. SP mode is completely gone now.

Snowplow should only be available in NAV master mode (with the FCR in A-G mode) and "pre-planned" A-G sub-modes like CCRP. It won't be available in "visual" A-G sub-modes like CCIP, STRF, VIP/VRP, etc.

The manual is currently being revised to go into further detail regarding how different sighting modes like Snowplow should work, and also when they should not work.

The manual was the place where I looked before I wrote the report... That solves the issue.
Thanks for the quick reply!

Wouldn't it be more logical if SP was available in GM/GMT/SEA no matter what but the whole GM/GMT/SEA mode was blocked in the visual modes because the radar is used for radar ranging, especially in CCIP?

Please remember we are doing a F-16CM Block 50, roughly M4.2+, operated by the United States Air Force and Air National Guard circa 2007. 

thank you
