EXIT|EXIT|EXIT|EXIT|EXIT. (Before you completely exited out of the
Search menus, you could have gone looking for another place.)
NOTE:
Search works from high detail mapping data loaded in AirMap.
Aviation Navigation searches use information from a Jeppesen da-
tabase, and general navigation searches use POI information avail-
able with a MapCreate custom map. If you do not have a high-
detailed Jeppesen map (or a custom map containing POI data) for
the area you are searching loaded on the MMC, you may not find
anything.
Find Nearest Airport (shortcut)
One of flying's most terrifying events is having to make an emergency
landing. This situation can be deadly at any time. It's particularly dan-
gerous when you're flying over unfamiliar territory, with no idea where
you can safely stop. Of course, the first thing to do is remain calm and
follow all standard emergency procedures. Naturally, no instrument by
itself can get you through an emergency situation, but we have done
our best to provide you with the tools you need as a pilot.
One of these emergency tools in the AirMap is a Find Nearest Airport
feature that automatically locates, selects, and shows navigation data to
the airport nearest the location where the feature was activated. To acti-
vate Find Nearest Airport, press the
ZOUT and ZIN keys at the same
time. A Find By Nearest screen appears, showing a list of the closest air-
ports. Use ↑ or ↓ to select the best airport for your situation (the bottom
of the list displays the length of the longest runway at each airport.)
