Waypoint
Information
The Apollo SL50/60 provides an extensive built-in
database of waypoint information to aid the

select a waypoint as a destination, search for
waypoint information, search for nearest waypoints,
or insert waypoints into a flight plan.
The waypoint types are:
Airports (ARPTs)
Very high frequency omniranges (VORs)
