3.7.1. SELECTING WAYPOINTS BY IDENTIFIER
The most direct way of selecting a specific waypoint is to simply enter
the waypoint’s identifier directly on the appropriate waypoint page
type (APT, for example). Let’s use Chicago O’Hare International
Airport whose identifier is KORD as an example.
To select a waypoint by identifier from a waypoint page:
1. Use the right outer and inner
knobs to select the Airport 1 (APT
1) page (figure 3-64). (Actually,
the airport identifier can be
entered on any of the three
Airport pages but we’ll use the
APT 1 since it displays the airport
name and city).
2. Turn on the cursor ( B ) and
make sure the right inner knob is
pushed in. The cursor will
appear over the first character of
the airport identifier (figure 3-65).
3. Turn the right inner knob to select
a “K” as the first character (figure
3-66). You may turn the knob
either clockwise or counterclock-
wise, and the letters and
numbers wrap around with a
blank character separating the “9”
and the “A”. Notice that as you turn through letters, the KLN 35A
automatically fills in the identifier of the first waypoint in alphanu-
meric order in the data base which matches what you’ve entered
so far (in this case, Hall Airport in Kaufman, Texas). Go ahead
and experiment a little bit.
4. Use the right outer knob to move
the cursor to the second
character and select an “O”
(figure 3-67).
