Hi Tobias,

I haven't tried 6.2.3 yet but I flew with 6.2.2 last saturday (running on my 
Streak connected to 302) and something is very wrong with all arrival altitude 
calculations in waypoint info and info boxes when combining bug factor, 
Headwind and MC >0. Once arrival altitude turned negative it immediately 
dropped by 5000 feet or more to something completely wrong. Sometime it will 
stuck on zero. If I changed MC to zero it usually fixes it. I can recreate it 
anytime I replay my flight. The issue gets worse the higher the headwind, MC 
and bug factor. In my example MC=0.5, bug factor= 67% and head wind = 12 knots. 
No task set, so next waypoint was home all the time. Arrival altitude (altitude 
difference) was correct until turned negative with the head wind component, 
then it dropped from zero to -6000 feet in couple of minutes! I even saw a 
message that I will arrive after sunset although the waypoint was only 20 miles 
away and there was at least 3 hours to sunset.  Please note that the zero MC 
calculation was correct in the waypoint info all the time, only the current MC 
and safety MC ( if greater than zero) are completely off when turning negative 
with polar degradation and significant headwind >10 knots or so.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure 
contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, 
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this 
data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
