Also, what is with the proprietary I-pod jack ? I figured USB would do the trick ?

This seems to be standard--the Airshow hasn't worked right once on any flight in new C I've taken. The time flown has always been less, and the distance flown is often shown as 1 mi / 3 km. On the other hand, time remaining always has seemed to be nearly correct.

I also hate the new flight path which auto-updates as the plane moves, so rather than showing you the actual flight path, complete with deviations and holds, it shows you the great circle or most direct route to the current location of the plane.
