MAP DECLUTTER
The pilot can remove (declutter) unwanted items, such as highways from the
map.
To declutter the Map Page:
1)
From any Map Page, press the CLR Key. ‘CLEAR-1’ appears below
the map range. The background map detail (such as highways, cities,
rivers, and smaller lakes) are removed from the map.
2)
Press the
CLR
Key again. ‘CLEAR-2’ appears below the map range and
airspace boundary detail is removed from the map.
3)
Press the
CLR
Key again. ‘CLEAR-3’ appears below the map range.
Only the waypoints and navaids that are part of the current flight plan
appear on the map.
4) Press the CLR Key again to return ‘ALL’ detail to the map.

5.3 AIRWAYS
Low Altitude Airways (or Victor Airways) primarily serve smaller piston-engine,
propeller-driven airplanes on shorter routes and at lower altitudes. Airways are
eight nautical miles wide and start 1,200 feet above ground level (AGL) and
extend up to but not including 18,000 feet mean sea level (MSL). Low Altitude
Airways are designated with a “V” before the airway number (hence the name
“Victor Airways”) since they run primarily between VORs.
High Altitude Airways (or Jet Routes) primarily serve airliners, jets, turboprops,
and turbocharged piston aircraft operating above 18,000 feet MSL. Jet Routes
start at 18,000 feet MSL and extend upward to 45,000 feet MSL (altitudes above
18,000 feet are called “flight levels” and are described as FL450 for 45,000 feet
MSL). Jet Routes are designated with a “J” before the route number.
