• Right-click in the Enroute Charts View and choose Add Route to

'[Selected RoutePack]'. This adds a route to the currently selected
RoutePack in the RoutePack list.

• Click File > Add Route to '[Selected RoutePack]'. This adds a

route to the currently selected RoutePack in the RoutePack list.

The

Route Properties

dialog box contains information about the route,

including the distance, alternate airports, waypoints, and charts. The only
active field is the route name.

2. Accept the default name or type a new one in the Name field, and then click

OK. The new route appears in the RoutePack List. You can now point and
click the enroute chart to add waypoints to your route.

3. In the enroute chart, click the symbol for your departure airport. The selected

waypoint appears in the RoutePack List under your route.

4. You can also click any area of the enroute chart to create a new waypoint.

These are designated in the RoutePack List and on the enroute chart as WP
1, WP 2,
and so on.

5. Select the route waypoints (if any) in sequence and then your destination

airport. When the Append Waypoints function is active, moving the mouse
around the chart displays a dashed line with information about the proposed
leg and waypoint:

012T indicates the true bearing from the last route waypoint to the

pointer.

015M indicates magnetic bearing.

67.45 NM indicates distance.

750/1000 ft indicates the approximate lowest and highest terrain in

feet between the last route waypoint and the mouse pointer.

As waypoints are selected, the new route appears in blue on the enroute chart
and each waypoint appears in the RoutePack List.

5. To finish the route, do either of the following:

• Right-click an open space on the enroute chart and choose Stop

Appending Waypoints.

• Press ESC.

After you create the route, you can insert or delete waypoints, and reverse, append
to, or print the new route.
