[tim arnot]

I'm calling this build the pre-beta, since there's been quite a lot of changes over the last month or so, and I'd like to establish a degree of confidence before calling it, as it were.

• VRP 'user data' preserved between sessions for add/edit dialog
• Fixed Edit user waypoint context menu missing if no flight plan
• Fixed AI plane sometimes overlays user plane
• Fixed Distance next waypoint/Distance to dest calc showed KMs not nautical miles
• Fixed Waypoint reached calculation sometimes wrong (potentially ongoing on case by case basis!)
• Added Status Bar
• Added GPS Panel
• Added options tab for GPS panel
• Changed text field background colour in editable dialogs
• User Waypoint dialog now has better tooltips
• Fixed some context menu insonsistencies for user waypoints
• Added Note on user waypoint dialog to say elevation is optional
• SimConnect now retrieves Turn Rate and Vertical Speed values
• GPS Panel options stored in registry (Max ASI etc)
• Fixed mouse cursor not always correctly restored by some dialogs
• Vor, Ndb, airport etc icons replaced by natty new ones from Andrew Sambrook
