FLIGHT PLANS

Activating Flight Plans

Once a flight plan is defined through the Flight Plan

Catalog Page (using the steps outlined previously in this
section), it may be activated for navigation. Activating the
flight plan places it into ‘flight plan 00’ and overwrites any
previous information at that location.

Activating an existing flight plan:

1) From the Flight Plan Catalog Page, press the

small right knob to activate the cursor.

2) Turn the large right knob to highlight the

desired flight plan and press the MENU Key to
display the Flight Plan Catalog Page Menu.

3) Turn the large right knob to highlight ‘Activate

Flight Plan?’ and press the ENT Key (Figure
5-9).

Inverting Flight Plans

After travelling along a flight plan, the pilot may wish

to reverse the route for navigation guidance back to the
original departure point.

Activating an existing flight plan in reverse
order:

1) From the Flight Plan Catalog Page, press the

small right knob to activate the cursor.

2) Turn the large right knob to highlight the

desired flight plan and press the MENU Key to
display the Flight Plan Catalog Page Menu.

3) Turn the large right knob to highlight ‘Invert &

Activate FPL?’ (Figure 5-10) and press the ENT
Key. The original flight plan remains intact in
its flight plan catalog storage location.
