active flight plan and default NAV pages.
Note the magenta line in the bottom figure,
which represents the currently active leg of
the approach. The distance (DIS) displayed on
the above screens is TO the “D13.0” point. The
flight plan will automatically sequence to the
next leg upon reaching “D13.0”.
3. At 13.0 NM from the IAF, a waypoint alert
(“DTK 265° x S”) will appear in the lower right
corner of the screen. Make a standard rate turn
to the right to intercept the final approach
course and watch for the CDI needle to begin
to center.
4. As you approach the intermediate fix (CF25),
a waypoint alert (“DTK 265° x S”) will appear.
Make any necessary course adjustments.
5. Approach is active when the FAF is the TO
waypoint and bearing and track are within 45°
of the final approach course. The 400W-series
unit will switch from terminal mode to
approach mode. (“LNAV” will appear in the
lower left corner of the screen—replacing
“TERM”.) CDI scaling will be tightened from
1.0 to 0.3 NM full scale deflection, or 2° full
scale deflection, whichever is less at the FAF,
and as defined for the approach. The change
occurs over 2 NM and is completed by the
FAF.
6. As you approach the FAF, “DTK 265° x S” will
appear in the lower right corner of the screen.
7. As you cross the FAF, the destination sequences
to the MAP (MA25). With the CDI needle
centered, fly toward the MAP, observing the
altitude minimums dictated by the approach
plate.
8. As you approach the MAP, a waypoint alert
(“ARRIVING WPT”) will appear in the lower
right corner of the screen. The CDI will continue
to tighten to ±350 feet full-scale deflection.
9. As you cross the MAP, “SUSP” will appear
above the OBS key, indicating that automatic
sequencing of approach waypoints is sus-
pended at the MAP. If a missed approach is
required, use the OBS key to initiate the missed
approach sequence, as outlined below.
TYPE 2: Course from fix to altitude
Course from fix to altitude legs will show the specific
target altitude on the active flight plan and default
NAVpages.Themissedapproachsequenceforthe

course from fix to altitude leg. In this instance, the
leg corresponds to the initial phase of the missed
approach, which reads “Climb to 5000’ outbound via
PMDVORR-282”.
1. After crossing the MAP, press the OBS key. The
missed approach sequence is automatically
offered, starting with the course from fix to alti-
tude leg. The “DTK 282° NOW” alert appears
in the lower right corner of the screen. Follow
the missed approach procedures, as published
