NOTE:
Search works from high detail mapping data loaded in AirMap. Avia-
tion Navigation searches use information from a Jeppesen database,
and general navigation searches use POI information available with
a MapCreate custom map. If you do not have a high-detailed Jeppe-
sen map (or a custom map containing POI data) for the area you are
searching loaded on the MMC, you may not find anything.
Find Nearest Airport (shortcut)
One of flying's most terrifying events is having to make an emergency
landing. This situation can be deadly at any time. It's particularly dan-
gerous when you're flying over unfamiliar territory, with no idea where
you can safely stop. Of course, the first thing to do is remain calm and
follow all standard emergency procedures. Naturally, no instrument by
itself can get you through an emergency situation, but we have done
our best to provide you with the tools you need as a pilot.
One of these emergency tools in the AirMap is a Find Nearest Airport
feature that automatically locates, selects, and shows navigation data to
the airport nearest the location where the feature was activated. To acti-
vate Find Nearest Airport, press the
ZOUT
and
ZIN
keys at the same time.
A Find By Nearest screen appears, showing a list of the closest airports.
Use
↑
or
↓
to select the best airport for your situation (the bottom of the
list displays the length of the longest runway at each airport.) Then you
can press
ENT
to get detailed information about the airport, or press
(the
FIND
key)to begin navigating to the selected location.
Navigating to Nearest Airport with the AirMap
Find your way to the selected airport with the Navigation Page or Map
Page. Any time navigation is activated, the Navigation Page shows the
compass rose with its bearing arrow pointing toward the desired destina-
tion position, and the destination name shown in a data box. The Map
Page displays a dotted line from your start point to the desired airport.
Tip:
You don't need to have an emergency to use the Find Nearest Air-
port feature. You can also use it to maintain positional awareness
by finding the nearest landing strip at any time.
