What distance do the range rings represent and what is the XTK? Thanks for any response.

They can vary, as you zoom in and out. I think they are set at default as 20, 10 and 5 miles.

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

XTK is Cross Track Error. Basically, the distance from the intended track (not heading) in GPS. In other words, how far off course you are.
