This MFD calculates the path through an atmosphere.

You can use it to aerobrake, aerocapture, skip reentry, ballistic reentry, etc...

The glide path is integrated keeping account of lift and drag. Outside of a planet's atmosphere this data isn't available, so it's approximated from old functions on the frontal surface.

The new version has an autopilot and two graphs: path and lift/drag.
