The CMA-9000 FMS provides navigation and guidance in the normal fashion for the two outbound legs of the
procedure turn, followed by a turn to intercept the final approach course inbound to the final approach fix. When
the maximum allowable procedure turn distance is less than 10 nm, the length of the first outbound leg may be
reduced. As a result, navigation and guidance may sequence to the second outbound leg almost immediately
after crossing the procedure turn reference fix.
CAUTION:
During the procedure turn, it is the responsibility of the crew to ensure that the maximum distance from
the procedure turn reference fix is not exceeded and that the aircraft remains within protected airspace
at all times. The distance-to-go shown on the PROGRESS 1/3 or 1/4 page
cannot
be used for this
purpose, except when the FAF is the TO WPT. The distance from the procedure turn reference fix
can be monitored using the FIX page, as described in Section 5.
Deletion of the procedure turn reference fix or the first outbound waypoint results in the deletion of the entire
procedure turn. The two outbound waypoints cannot be copied to the scratchpad, and cannot be used as
reference waypoints.
ATC clearances which modify the selected arrival procedures can be incorporated at any time by selection of
the new procedure. This results in the automatic deletion of the waypoints associated with the cancelled
procedure.
NOTE: When stringing an Approach procedure to an Approach Transition or STAR procedure at their common
waypoint, if speed and/or altitude constraints exist for this waypoint in both procedures, the constraint(s)
from the Approach procedure are retained.
The Approach altitude/airspeed constraint(s) will probably be lower/slower than the Approach Transition
or STAR constraints.
