From the nearest airport list, an options window allows you to filter out airports that don’t meet a
defined criteria. This allows you to weed out airports with an undesired surface type and/or insufficient
runway length. Pilots of larger, high-performance aircraft may define the nearest airport search to ignore
airports at which it would be difficult, if not impossible, to land.
The following runway surface settings are available:
• Any—
displays any runway, regardless of surface type, including water landing facilities.
• Hard Only—
displays only runways with a concrete, asphalt or similar sealed surface.
• Hard or Soft—
displays all runways except water landing facilities.
• Water Only—
display only water landing facilities.
To select the nearest airport criteria:
1. Display the nearest airports list by following the steps on the preceding page.
2. Press
MENU
to display an options window, then press
ENTER
. A pop-up window will appear with
the current settings for runway surface and minimum runway length.
3. With the runway surface field highlighted, press
ENTER
. Use the
ROCKER KEYPAD
to select the
desired surface type and press
ENTER
.
4. Highlight the minimum runway length field and press
ENTER
. Use the
ROCKER KEYPAD
to select
the minimum acceptable runway length and press
ENTER
once all numbers have been entered.
Use caution when changing the nearest airport criteria. In an emergency, a short
runway is still typically preferable to an off-field landing. If you set the runway length
too high or exclude many runway surfaces, you may not be alerted to a nearby airport
that would otherwise would be listed.
