Selecting and Loading an Approach
When an arrival airport is selected with the direct-to key (or created and activated
in a route to the arrival airport), the approaches for your arrival airport become avail-
able through the approach select page, which can be viewed by pressing
R
and
rotating the outer knob. Remember that an airport must be the last waypoint in a
route to select an approach.
To select an approach:
1. Select the destination airport using the
D
key, or
create and activate a route to the destination airport (see Section 5).
2. Press
R
and rotate
O
to display the approach select page.
3. Rotate
K
(or
O
with the cursor active) to display the desired approach procedure.
4. Press
C
twice (if necessary) and rotate
O
until the desired approach flashes.
5. Press
E
to select the approach.
If an approach procedure has more than one Initial Approach Fix (IAF), you’ll
need to select the desired IAF identifier for your approach.
To select an IAF:
1. Rotate
O
until the desired IAF flashes.
2. Press
E
.
Once the IAF is selected, the approach waypoints will be inserted into Route 0,
replacing the destination airport, and the active route page will be displayed. To
review the active route, rotate the
K
knob. The scrolling arrow prompt will indicate
which direction to scroll to view additional waypoints, while the ‘if’, ‘ff’ and ‘mp’ des-
ignators will indicate the IAF, FAF and MAP respectively.
