The heading to a manual termination leg defines a heading to
fly until the pilot initiates sequencing. Like the fix to a manual
termination leg, this type of leg is most often used where the
pilot is to expect vectors from air traffic control. The pilot will
have to maintain the desired heading manually and initiate
sequencing manually when appropriate.
The heading to an altitude leg defines a heading to fly and
an altitude at which the leg sequences. The pilot will have to
maintain the desired heading manually, but sequencing to the
next leg in the flight plan happens automatically upon reaching
the specified altitude.
The course to a fix leg defines a path to a fix on a specific
course. When a course to a fix leg is used for a vectors-to-final
approach transition, the course is preceded by the word “vec-
tors” in the flight plan view.
