Waypoints on the local list
The
Waypoints (local)
screen displays up to
30 of the closest waypoints (within 100

waypoints you may be interested in at the
moment.
Waypoints on the alpha list
The
Waypoints (alpha)
screen displays all
stored waypoints in alphabetical order.
Waypoints with a digit as the first char-
acter appear at the beginning of the list.
Those starting with a dash or parenthesis
are at the end.
Waypoints on the avoidance list
The
Waypoints (avoidance)
screen displays up
to 30 of the closest avoidance waypoints
(within 100 nm) in order of distance from
your present position.
