Runway Extension (RWY EXT)
Permits optional entry of a runway extension waypoint following selection of
desired runway.
Desired extension distance is entered in scratch pad, then inserted on RWY EXT
line. Valid entries are between 1 and 25 NM (.1 NM resolution). This creates a
waypoint on the extended runway centerline at the specified distance from the
runway threshold.
Waypoint is identified on the RTE and RTE LEGS pages as RX–YYY, where
YYY is the runway designation.
A speed/altitude constraint may be entered for the RWY EXT fix from the RTE
LEGS page.
2

Permits optional entry of a flight path angle between the runway threshold and the
runway extension fix. Default is 3.0 degrees. Valid entries are from 2.0 to 5.5
degrees.
Note:
Dashes (–.– –) are displayed on the DEP/ARR page when the default is
used.
