Think some of you guys overestimate the benefits of direct tracking. Try drawing a few triangles some time and measure the actual difference between DCT and via the apex. Most times its less than a couple of miles. I used to laugh in the days before GPS when guys would ask for direct between 2 omnis, only to scallop all over the sky and add about 10 track miles.
