In the "wrong" pictures it looks like you have extra course legs, including
holds, in your flight plan. The distance the Chelton displays is the
distance you have to travel, not DME to the destination. But then, I could
be wrong.

Subject: [LML] Dumb Chelton Question -- OK Gents:
Pull out your iPads and look at the RNAV (GPS) RWY 16R approach to KPAE. From the IAF of EYWOK to the end of the runway is 11.1 miles. So, according
to my limited understanding, it would seem that your distance to KPAE would
be 11.1 miles plus how far you are from EYWOK.
On the screen shot below, I'm just outside of EYWOK -- 0.8 miles according
to the information in the lower right of the screen.
One would think that the distance to KPAE would be 0.8 plus 11.1, or 11.9
miles rather than the 27.6NM listed below.
