IFR Procedures
Once the direct-to or flight plan is confirmed, the
whole range of instrument procedures is available to
you. Departures (SIDs), arrivals (STARs), non-preci-
sion and precision approaches are stored within the
NavData card and available using the
PROC (proce-
dures) key.
To display the procedures page, press PROC.
The steps required to select and activate an
approach, departure or arrival are identical. In this
introductory section, we’ll show examples of the steps
required to select an approach, but keep in mind the
same process also applies to departures and arrivals.
To select an approach, departure, or arrival:
1. Turn the
small right
knob to select the desired
option (“Select Approach?”, “Select Arrival?”
or “Select Departure?”) from the procedures
page.
Press the PROC key to display the procedures
page. Turn the large right knob to select the
desired option.
2. Press
ENT
to display a list of available proce-
dures for the arrival (when using approaches
or STARs) or departure (when using SIDs)
airport.
3. Turn the small right knob to select the desired
procedure and press ENT .
4. For approaches, a window appears to select the
desired initial approach fix (IAF) or provide a
“vectors” option to select just the final course
segment of the approach. Turn the
small right
knob to select the desired option and press
ENT . Vectors guidance is relative to the final
inbound course. A line is drawn beyond the
final approach fix, allowing you to intercept
the final course segment beyond its normal
limits.
A window will appear to select the desired
procedure. Use the large right knob to make
your selection.
5. For departures and arrivals, a window appears
to select the desired transition. Turn the
small
right
knob to select the desired option and
press
ENT
.
6. With “Load?” highlighted, press ENT to add
the procedure to the flight plan or direct-to.
In your flight plan or direct-to, the departure
or arrival airport is replaced with the sequence of
waypoints contained within the selected procedure.
