APPROACHES
The G1000 allows you to fly non-precision and
precision approaches to airports with published instrument
approach procedures. All available approaches are part of
the Jeppesen database stored internally in each PFD and
MFD.
The G1000 provides both lateral and vertical guidance
for ILS precision approaches on the PFD, and lateral
guidance for non-precision Localizer, GPS, and VOR and
ADF overlay approaches. GPS position information is
also provided on the mapping portion of the MFD and the
inset map window on the PFD for pilot reference only.
G1000 NAVIGATIONAL GUIDANCE FOR
APPROACHES
The G1000 supports all ARINC 424 leg types that have
associated waypoint fixes. The G1000 uses the following
leg types as part of the Jeppesen database:
• AF – DME arc to a fix
• CF – Course to a fix
• DF – Direct to a fix
• FA – Course from fix to an altitude
• FC – Course from fix to distance
• FD – Course from fix to DME distance
• FM – Course from fix to manual termination
• HA – Hold terminating at altitude
• HF – Hold terminating at a fix
• HM – Hold with manual termination
• IF – Initial fix
• PI – Procedure turn to course intercept
• RF – Constant radius turn to fix
• TF – Track between two fixes
Each of these legs is displayed on the active flight plan.
The G1000 does not support the following legs:
• CA – Course to an altitude
• CD – Course to a DME distance
• CI – Course to an intercept
• CR – Course to a radial
• VA – Heading vector to an altitude
• VD – Heading vector to DME distance
• VI – Heading vector to an intercept
• VM – Heading vector to manual termination
• VR – Heading vector to a radial
NOTE : The G1000 does not provide steering guid-
ance for hold legs and procedure turns (HA, HF,
HM and PI leg types). However, these legs are
drawn on the map and are shown in the flight
plan.
NOTE : The pilot is responsible for determining
database currency for approaches.
