Flight Plan screen does not update estimates of time & fuel when change aircraft

If you're already in the Flight Plan screen and you change the aircraft (and push the Done button in the popup message) then the screen does not update with the changed time and fuel amounts due to differences in aircraft speed/consumption. But if you then use the Done button to return to the map, and re-enter into Flight Plan, then it shows the changed values.

It also does not auto-update the fuel estimate if you change a waypoint to "Land Here". Again, if you exit the Flight Plan screen and return to it, then it does update.
