      For distance and planning is it possible to include multiple routes e.g. a comparison between Great Circle and Rhumbline routes. Now it only does Great circle. or am i missing something?

        Rhumb line is not an option in the Route planner (Distance&planning). The Route planner allows to plot directly routes following Great Circles only.
        This type of route is shorter, but just it needs to change regularly the heading during the trip.
        However there is a workaround to plot a rhumb line
