Description
The course to an altitude leg defines a specific course to be
flown from the position at which the leg is initiated and an
altitude at which the leg terminates. Sequencing occurs auto-
matically upon reaching the specified altitude.
(PILOT NAV) The course to a DME distance leg defines a
specific course to be flown from the position at which the leg is
initiated and a DME distance at which the leg terminates. The
distance is defined by both the identifier of the DME fix and
the distance, as shown in the example the Course-To is C238
and the Identifier is VIL with the DME distance of 0.70 nm is
shown in brackets. The pilot will have to maintain the desired
course manually and initiate sequencing manually upon reach-
ing the specified DME distance.
(PILOT NAV) The course to an intercept leg defines a specific
course to be flown from the position at which the leg is initi-
ated. It terminates upon intercepting the next leg. The pilot
will have to maintain the desired course manually and initiate
sequencing manually upon intercepting the next leg of the
flight plan.
