[REPORTED] Waypoint offset bearing based on TRUE not MAGNETIC.

A few months ago we had this bug and it was reported for both the TCN and WAYPOINT offsets. TCN offset seems to work correctly now since an update a few months ago.

 

Waypoint offset- WO/S however is bugged, with this one you still need to add the MAG Variation to the bearing entered to get the correct offset location.

 

If you are parked at a bearing of 180 degrees and at 20 nm from a waypoint and enter a bearing of 180 @ 20 nm and then select W/OS steering you will see that the w/OS will be 2.4 nm east of you. If you now add the MAG VAR to that bearing and type in a bearing of 186 (if in the Caucasus with mag var of 6 W) your w/os will be exactly where you are.
