Using GoTo

If you have a route loaded, FliteDeck normally sets the simulated aircraft location at

the departure airport. To place the aircraft symbol at a specific location, do the
following:

1. Place the simulator in the On mode.

2. Click the desired location on the chart. Notice the latitude and longitude,

designator for an airport, VOR, NDB, or intersection appears on the Status bar
and in the Sim Trainer GoTo block.

3. In the sim trainer control box, click GoTo to move the aircraft symbol to the

desired location.

You can also use the Waypoint List to move the aircraft symbol:

1. Go to the Plan page.

2. Click Clear Waypoint (CLR) to clear the Enter Waypoint text box.

3. Select a waypoint in the Route Waypoint list. FliteDeck marks that waypoint

with an asterisk (*).

4. In the GPS sim trainer control box, click GoTo.

IMPORTANT

When you are finished practicing with the GPS Simulator Trainer,
return to the FliteDeck Setup program, select the GPS tab, and

enable your actual GPS. See
