CNX80 Flight Planning
Some basic issues have come up in flight planning that are addressed in the Computer
Based Training (CBT) materials you have on your owner’s CD. However, they bear
repeating here in order to emphasize the concept of operation.
Changing a Destination
The CNX80 needs to know what the Origin Airport is in order to select the departure
SID. It also needs to know the Destination airport in order to select the appropriate
STAR or Instrument Approach at the Destination airport.
If you are training and bouncing from airport to airport shooting approaches, then you
must change the Destination airport in the CNX80. This may be accomplished in a
number of ways:
Method A
1.
Select the flight plan page and edit mode.
2.
Highlight the destination airport (if you have an approach selected you will
not see the destination airport, first highlight the approach and delete it using
the CLR key.)
3.
Select Modify
4.
Choose the new Destination airport and press Enter.
