TRIP AND FUEL PLANNING
The Trip and Fuel Planning Page allows
you to calculate time and fuel
requirements between any two
waypoints or for any programmed
route. On the first cyclic field, you will
choose between waypoint (WPT) or
route (RTE) planning by highlighting
and pressing CLR. If route planning is
selected, you would then select the desired route number and the portion of
the route (a given leg or all of the route) to calculate for.
The final step is to enter speed and fuel flow rates. The GPS 95 will then
calculate the desired track (DTK), fuel requirements (REQ), distance (DIS),
and estimated time enroute (ETE).
To perform a trip and fuel plan, waypoint to waypoint...
· Highlight the first cyclic field (top
left), and press CLR to select
“WPTS:”.
· Highlight the waypoint name field
(second line), and enter the first
waypoint name followed by ENT.
· The second waypoint name field is
now highlighted. Enter the second
waypoint name followed by ENT.
· The speed (SPD) field is highlighted. Enter the planned speed, and
press ENT.
· The fuel flow (Flow) field is highlighted. Enter the estimated fuel flow
followed by ENT.
· The GPS 95 will now display the calculated figures.
