To delete a waypoint:

1. Click Clear Waypoint (ESC) to clear any text from the Enter Waypoint text

box.

2. Select the waypoint you want to delete. FliteDeck marks the waypoint with an

asterisk (*).

3. Click Delete Waypoint (F10). FliteDeck draws the route as it will appear

after the deletion with a dashed green line.

4. Click Execute (F7).

You can also delete a waypoint by typing the name of the waypoint to delete:

1. Press the TAB key to rest on the Enter Waypoint text box.

2. Type the name of the waypoint.

3. Click Delete Waypoint (F10).

4. Click Execute (F7).

NOTE

If you select a waypoint to delete that is part of a procedure, a button

displays, such as Delete SID, that allows you to delete the entire
procedure. The procedure name appears above the applicable waypoints

in the Route Waypoint list.

Deleting More Than One Waypoint

This feature is patterned after the multiple-waypoint delete functions in some flight
management systems. For example, assume you are deleting WUTSO and GFK VOR

from the route shown here:

1. If there is any text in the Enter waypoint text box, click Clear Waypoint

(ESC) to clear it.

2. Select the waypoint immediately before the first waypoint you want to delete,

that is, the last waypoint you want to keep. In this example, select KGAF,
Hutson Field Airport. FliteDeck marks it with an asterisk (*).

3. Select the last of the waypoints to delete. In this example, select GFK VOR.

4. The waypoints (WUTSO and GFK VOR) disappear from the Route Waypoint

list, and FliteDeck draws the proposed route change with a dashed green line.

5. Click Execute (F7) to confirm the deletion. The resulting portion of this route

goes direct from KGAF to PKD VOR.

IMPORTANT

If you have cleared

Confirm Route Changes

in the FliteDeck Setup

program, you could easily delete several waypoints when you
think you are just selecting a waypoint! That is why, when you are

not deleting multiple waypoints, you must clear any text out of
the Enter waypoint text box with the Clear Waypoint (ESC)

button prior to trying to select a waypoint.
