Parallel Track
Parallel Track?
allows you to create a parallel
course offset of 1 to 99 NM to the left or right of your
current flight plan. After setting a parallel track to your
current flight plan, a magenta parallel track line will be
drawn offset from the original by the selected distance.
The original course line will be drawn in white. The
aircraft will navigate to the parallel track course line.
When you reach the end of the flight plan, a
message will state “Parallel offset terminating in X
seconds”. The message will be given when the aircraft
reaches the offset distance from the end of the parallel
track. This will give the pilot sufficient time to inter-
cept the original course.
