100KM

Hi all

Maybe I'm doing something stupid, or don't understand something, but on my simple flight plan this morning I had a 3 turn loiter command. When my plane reached the position, it simply kept on circling, never exiting even after 6+ turns.

Did I do something wrong in my flight plan?

I'm attaching both tlog and waypoint files.

Thanks for any help. I'm flying V2.28.

    I've tested time based loitering, which works perfectly. I'm going to log a bug. Ok, scratch that - I see I'm behind on my version again (2.8)!

    Can somebody at least confirm that their Loiter Turns is working correctly?

    You do know that there are three types of loiter commands, don't you?  1 - Loiter unlimited, 2 - Loiter x turns, 3 - loiter x time.  If you are using the first you will never leave the loiter.  Generally that command is used to end a mission, or in conjunction with a conditional command.  The other two loiter commands you specify a number of turns you wish to remain in the loiter, or an amount of time...
