Direct-To
Examples
The following three examples provide some of the more common ways that you can use
the powerful Direct-To function.
Center the CDI
After changing your course to avoid weather, an obstacle, or being directed, you may
need to reset your course to center your CDI to continue navigating to your intended TO
waypoint.
1. You flew to the right to avoid a storm cloud and your CDI tells you to fly left, but you
still have the same TO waypoint. Press DIRECT-TO. Your current TO waypoint is
displayed and the Waypoint Type will flash.

waypoint. Your CDI will now be centered, as you are “on course.”
