The Procedures Page is displayed by pressing the
PROC key. The Procedures Page provides direct access
to approaches, departures and arrivals — based upon
the active flight plan or direct-to destination. In either
case, the departure and destination airports must have
published procedures associated with them.
To select an approach, departure or arrival:
1. Press the PROC key to display the Procedures
Page.
Press the PROC key to display the Procedures Page. Options are
available to select published approaches, arrivals (STARs) and
departures (DPs or SIDs).
2. Turn the large right knob to highlight “Select
Approach?”, “Select Departure?” or “Select
Arrival?” and press ENT.
3. A window appears listing the available proce-
dures. Turn the large right knob to highlight
the desired procedure and press ENT. (When
a direct-to destination is selected, departures
are offered for the nearest airport.)
4. A second window appears listing the avail-
able transitions. Turn the large right knob to
highlight the desired transition waypoint and
press ENT. (The approach “Vectors” option
assumes you will receive vectors to the final
course segment of the approach and will pro-
vide navigation guidance relative to the final
approach course.)
You can select a transition waypoint for an approach, or
choose “VECTORS” to provide navigation guidance to the final
approach course.
5. Turn the large right knob to highlight
“Load?” or “Activate?” (approaches only)
and press ENT. “Load?” adds the procedure
to the flight plan without immediately using
it for navigation guidance. This allows you to
continue navigating the original flight plan,
but keeps the procedure available on the
Active Flight Plan Page for quick activation
when needed to later activate a departure or
arrival.
6. For VLOC-based precision approaches and
some non-precision approaches, a reminder
window appears indicating that GPS guidance
on such approaches is strictly for monitoring
only — use the VLOC receiver and external CDI
(or HSI) for primary navigation. To confirm this
reminder, highlight “Yes?” and press ENT.
