Flight Plan Shortcuts
The “Activate Leg?” option is discussed earlier,
which allows you to specify which leg of the flight
plan is currently used for navigation guidance. A
shortcut also exists for this operation, using the
direct-to key.
From the Active Flight Plan Page, use the
direct-to key (press twice) to activate a
highlighted route leg...
...including any portion of an instrument
procedure, such as a procedure turn, DME arc
or holding pattern.
To activate a specific leg of the active flight plan:
1. Press the
small right
knob to activate the
cursor and turn the
large right
knob to high-
light the desired destination waypoint.
2. Press direct-to twice to display an “Activate
Leg” confirmation window.
3. With “Activate?” highlighted, press ENT .
When using instrument procedures, this feature
can be used not only to activate a specific point-to-
point leg, but to also activate a departure, an arrival,
the procedure turn portion of an approach, follow a
DME arc or activate a holding pattern.
Any approach, departure or arrival can be reviewed
on the appropriate airport page in the WPT page
group.
To review a procedure while viewing a flight plan
page:
1. With the flight plan page displayed, press the
small right
knob to activate the cursor.
2. Turn the
large right
knob to highlight the
procedure header and press
ENT
to select the
WPT page group.
