### 🛩 VFRnav 4.27

**VFRnav 4.27** brings back the radar display on smaller devices and includes major performance improvements across the app.

#### ✨ What’s New

- **New:** The radar display is back on smaller devices.  
We found an optimal place for it, and it now appears automatically when traffic approaches — just like in the tablet layout.
- **Improved:** Better highlighting of selected airspaces.  
Selected airspaces are now shown with an animation to make them easier to distinguish from surrounding airspaces.  
 ![vfrnav-airspace-select](https://forum.vfrnav.com/uploads/default/original/1X/68e163dcd43bb6794a45fcd11912bbe523786382.gif)
- **New:** Support for additional airspace classes, including HTZ/HPZ.

#### Technical Improvements

- The highlighting of **high terrain** has been completely redesigned and is now performant even on less powerful devices.
- Performance optimizations in several areas, including:
  - Waypoint sheet
  - Flight planning, including route, weather, NOTAMs, and calculations
  - Checklists
  - Route and flight information widgets
  - Vertical airspace profile
  - Map display

- Improved handling of **serial connections** to external devices.

#### 🛠 Fixes

- **Fix:** When selecting coordinates for a user waypoint, the map marker was missing when reopening the selection screen.

As always, if you encounter any issues or have suggestions for improvement, we’d love to hear from you — either by **email** or here in the **forum**.

**Blue skies and safe flying!** ✈

Great.

Is it intentional that the approach point in the route planning is no longer displayed under “Route”?

Or is it a bug?

Could you send me the route once via “Share” as KML or GPX to [mail@flugbetrieb.com](mailto:mail@flugbetrieb.com)? Of course it shouldn’t look like that

Will do.

This route is a saved one for Sunday.

I also tested it with a newly created route; same result.

Interesting. So it doesn’t seem to depend on the route.  
I can’t reproduce it though 🤔

Edit: Got it 👍 👍

With the route I can reproduce it after all. Thank you very much — bugfix is underway 👌
