Viewing Airspace Information
When an airspace alert is provided, press DIRECT
TO
D
to automatically show nearby airspace
information. This information includes name, time to
entry (if applicable), and status. Normally, only one or
two airspace alerts occur at a time, but with sectorized
controlled airspace (such as many Class B areas)
you can have more. Status information can appear as
follows:
Ahead—your projected course takes you inside an
airspace within the next ten minutes or less.
Near—you are within two nautical miles of an
airspace, but not projected to enter it.
Near & Ahead—you are within two nautical miles of
an airspace and your current course takes you inside
the airspace.
Inside Airspace—you are within the boundaries of
the airspace.
From the Nearest Pages you can show additional
airspace information as well, such as floor and ceiling
limits or communication frequency(s).
