Pilot should set the actual QNH and elevation of the take-off airport on the initial
setup screen. If the QNH changes during flight the pilot can change the altitude
calculation for the final glide. If has changed since take-off, and no min-flight
correction is made, the final glide altitude will not be corrected and will still be
the same as set on the initial setup.
Reserve is the safety arrival altitude that is added to the required final glide
altitude so that the glider arrives over the destination at the selected reserved
altitude (AGL).
