7.6 FLIGHT PLANS
The G1000 can create up to 99 different flight plans
with up to 31 waypoints in each flight plan. The flight
plan (FPL) page group consists of three pages:
• Active Flight Plan
• Flight Plan Catalog
• Vertical Navigation
The Flight Plan Pages are used to create, edit and copy
flight plans. The Vertical Navigation Page is used to create
a three-dimensional profile which guides the aircraft to a
final (target) altitude at a specified location.
ACTIVE FLIGHT PLAN PAGE
The Active Flight Plan Page provides information
and editing functions for the flight plan currently in
use for navigation. Once a Direct-to or flight plan has
been activated, the Active Flight Plan Page shows the
following:
• Each waypoint for the flight plan (or a single
waypoint for a Direct-to), along with the desired
track (DTK) and distance of each leg (DIS).
• Active leg information with enroute safe altitude
(ESA) for the specified leg.
• Active FPL information with enroute safe altitude
(ESA)
• Flight plan information showing remaining leg
and remaining total distance, and enroute safe
altitude for the entire route.
The data fields are user-selectable and can be changed
to display the following:
• Cumulative Distance (CUM)
• Distance (DIS)
• Desired Track (DTK)
• Enroute Safe Altitude (ESA)
• Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA)
• Estimated Time Enroute (ETE)
