Basic Operation
4. Use the Joystick to high-
light the destination identifier as
shown in Figure 1-157.
5. Turn the Rotary Knob one
increment to display Figure 1-
158.
6. Press the INSERT PPOS
Softkey and the aircraft’s
present position will be inserted
before the selected identifier as
seen in Figure 1-159. ETA,
distance and required fuel to
KDSM are now displayed in the
data columns based on current
ground speed and fuel flow
(FFLOW) value indicated.
Inserting the aircraft’s present
position in the flight plan is just
like inserting any other way-
point in the flight plan except
the position continually
updates.
Note the ground speed and fuel
flow values shown in Figure 1-
159 indicate actual values by
being displayed in white. Fuel
flow is taken from a fuel flow
monitor and GPS ground
speed is being used.
7. If desired, press the
CHANGE FIELDS Softkey to
change the data columns as
discussed previously to view
other calculated data for the destination.
8. If desired, both the ground speed (GNDSPD) and fuel flow (FFLOW)
can be changed to a user defined number to view various “what if” sce-
narios.
