Moving Around the Map: Zoom & Cursor Arrow Keys
The map is presented from a bird's-eye view perspective. The current
zoom range shows in the lower left corner of the screen. If the zoom
range says "4 nm," the map shows an area 4 nautical miles wide from
the left edge of the screen to the right edge of the screen.

key (zoom in) to move in closer and see greater detail in a

detail, but a larger geographic area.
You can pan or scroll the map northward, southward, eastward or

cursor. To clear the cursor, press
