Active Route Page

Whenever you start a route (flight plan) or initiate a Goto while in

Aviation or Water Mode, the Active Route Page shows each point

(waypoint or map item) of the active route, with the point name,

Course, Distance, and several other fields of information. The

current destination point, the active point, is marked with an arrow.

As you navigate a route, the list automatically updates to indicate the

active point first. The Active Route and Route Review Pages share

many of the same features and options.
Press PAGE repeatedly to open the Active Route Page.

Active Route Page

NOTE: If you have created a route (Flight Plan) with a

Jeppesen point that is no longer current after you perform an

update to your Jeppesen Database, the route is locked. You need

to create a new route with current Jeppesen Database points.
