Describe the bug

MCDU remaining distances on the F-PLN page show a much longer distance than anticipated while maintaining accurate ETA and EFOB.

Expected behavior

I expected the MCDU remaining distance countdown to act as normal during a routine flight.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Enter any flight plan into the MCDU. Check to see that you have the correct distance as per the OFP that you generated or something very similar
  2. Once airborne, (specifically in the cruise phase of flight) check to see if there is an oddity in the remaining distance on the OFP.

Additional info (optional)

This was working on the ground as per usual (there is no ref image that I took on the ground, but I do recall it working correctly). This issue started to occur during the cruise phase of the flight. Note that the T/D Calculation was not affected. It only seems to affect the MCDU total distance countdown. The ND also continues to show the correct distance on the range rings. (Reference above images).

We dont really track issues with pullrequests on the main repo. You might want to add the info here as a comment on the fmsv2 pullrequest.

Also if possible try to add the route as this might be an issue with your specific route.

Hello. Going to close this now. Could not reproduce this during another flight. Sorry for the trouble!
