To select the desired nearest function, use the right inner knob to
move the cursor to the desired selection and press
F
. Notice that
the cursor is initially over the APT field, so you may press
G
then
press
F
immediately to access the nearest airports.
Selecting any of the waypoint types
(APT, VOR, NDB, INT, or USR)
takes you immediately to the way-
point page for the first nearest
waypoint of that type, for example,
the nearest airport (figure 3-89).
3.8.1. VIEWING THE NEAREST WAYPOINTS
There are actually two waypoint scan lists for airports, VORs, NDBs,
intersections and user-defined waypoints. These two lists are the
“complete” list and the “nearest” list. The complete list contains all of
the waypoints in the data base for a waypoint type (all the airports, for
example). The nearest list consists of the nine nearest waypoints (of
that type) to your present position. Therefore, if you are in the near-
est airport list, it will contain the nine nearest airports relative to your
location.
The nearest list is positioned in front of the complete list. That is,
instead of using the
G
button, you may scan backwards (turn the
right inner knob counterclockwise while in the “pulled out” position)
through the complete list to reach the nearest list. You will know
when you have reached the nearest list because the top middle por-
tion of the waypoint page will flash the relative position of the
waypoint to your position. “1” indicates nearest (figure 3-89) while “9”
indicates the ninth nearest (figure 3-
90). As you scan clockwise with the
right inner knob “1, 2, 3, ..., 9”, the
next scan position is the beginning of
the complete list. The nearest list can
