I usually tell aircraft to descend to 2000 ft above field elev, and I sometimes forget what the field elevation is.

Suggestion: do either of two things:
**1: **Add a new command (for example: "fieldelev") that shows the field elevation as a response, kind of like the "sa" command does

**2: **Add a indicator next to the terrain elevation legend

Option 2 sounds pretty good! Perhaps we could stick that with some basic weather we ought to be displaying. Maybe a simple bit of text we could shove in a corner somewhere (or hide/show) which includes the field elevation for the convenience of the controller. Just spitballing, but maybe something like this?

For whomever implements this, please do not tie this in to the CanvasController. This should be its own thing separate from the CanvasController.
