The Route Plan Page also displays trip planning

information for each leg or the entire route. Available
information includes desired course, time to waypoint,
distance to waypoint, required fuel and sunrise/sunset
times at the waypoint location.

To use the trip planning features:

1. To select the desired planning figure, highlight the desired

route from the Route List and press ENTER to display the

Route Plan Page. One of ten available planning figures

appears to the right of each route waypoint. Use the

LEFT/RIGHT keys on the ARROW Rocker Pad to select

the desired item.

‘Setup Plan’ from the options list. Enter the figures for

speed, fuel flow, departure time and departure date. Press

QUIT to return to the Route Plan Page.

Fuel flow rates on your NavTalk are measured in

“units per hour”. System setting changes for units of
measure (statute, nautical or metric) do not affect the
fuel flow measure. You should enter fuel flow rates
based upon available information for your vehicle
(operator’s manual, performance specifications, etc.) and
make note of the desired units of measure (gallons,
liters, etc.)
