AIRCRAFT SNAPPING
Bring the aircraft symbol near any runway thresh old to “snap” to it.
This will instantly place the aircraft on the runway threshold (at field
elevation) of the runway “snapped” to. This is especially useful for
quick repositioning from any location, altitude, heading, air speed
etc., to any specific airport runway. Al though available at all ZOOM
levels this feature is much easier to use at HIGH (close-in) ZOOM
levels, where the runway lay out is clearly visible.
MAP SCROLLING
Similar to the MAP scrolling described above while dragging the
aircraft symbol, it’s also possible to scroll the MAP view with-
out dragging the aircraft symbol. This is accomplished by clicking
anywhere on the MAP page NOT occupied by a facility or MAP
element, and dragging the cursor (fingertip) toward the edge of the
visible display. Scroll speed is controlled by varying the distance of
the cursor to the edge of the screen and is dependent on the amount
of data to be moved. The four “arrow buttons” (
UP, DOWN, LEFT,
RIGHT ) located at the bottom-right of the display, and the cursor
keys on the key board can also be used to scroll the visible MAP
view. If your scrolling takes you away from the current air craft po-
sition (i.e. to explore the surrounding area) and the air craft is no
longer visible,
you can quickly locate the aircraft and re-center the
MAP to it by clicking the red aircraft symbol surrounded by the
four a row buttons or pressing the “c” key on the keyboard.
