Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for Piper PA32

If there is no connecting waypoint that can be nominated based on the existing flight plan, the system will

try to present the list of airway waypoints in the order most consistent with the direction of the existing flight
plan and will nominate the next airway waypoint after the entry waypoint.

If the list of waypoints is large enough that the list box will need to be scrolled, the list box will be initially

arranged such that the waypoint nominated by the system is as near the middle of the scroll box as practical
(this allows the pilot to see adjacent waypoints on both sides of the nominated waypoint).

The entry waypoint is also shown on the list of exit waypoints but is not selectable.

Figure 5-75 Selecting an Exit Waypoint

In the example, airway V12 has 92 selectable waypoints on the segment that includes ANX, FRANC and

COU. The list box is initialized to show 19 of those waypoints centered on COU which is the waypoint
initially nominated by the system.

Preview the sequence of waypoints:

In MFD display mode, the airway segment will be previewed during the course of selecting the exit

waypoint. The preview consists of a graphical preview of the selected airway segment presented in the map
display window as well as a text listing of the waypoint sequence with courses and distances shown in the
Airway Loading window. The preview will update as the cursor is moved up or down over the list of exit
waypoints. In this example, the pilot has moved the cursor down from COU to TOY which updates the
graphical preview:
