Flight Planning

A Flight Plan consists of a sequence of one or more waypoints. A maximum of 99 waypoints are
supported. The great circle track between each waypoint defines the individual legs of the
Flight Plan. When a Flight Plan is active and shown on the Map, the current leg is magenta in
color. Future legs are white.

HSI Guidance is provided to the active leg of an active Flight Plan on the PFD when SKYVIEW is
selected as the navigation source or when the flight plan from an ARINC GPS such as the 430 is
active and that GPS is selected as the navigation source.

Waypoints may be entered into the current Flight Plan by direct entry from the Flight Plan
Menu, by pressing ADD->FPL from the Nearest or Info windows, by using the MENU>ADD
POINT TO FPL, or by importing a Flight Plan file from a USB memory stick in GPX format.
Operations are performed on the flight plan via the FPL MENU. Flight Plans from external ARINC
and Aviation serial format GPS navigators can be displayed in SkyView’s Flight Plan window and
on SkyView’s moving map, but all waypoint editing must be done on the source GPS.

A center-click press of the knob/joystick from within the FPL menu brings up the
insert waypoint function.

SkyView supports one Flight Plan at a time. This Flight Plan can be manipulated, and it can
provide navigation if it is activated, and it can be exported to a USB memory stick for later
retrieval. Importing a Flight Plan from a USB memory stick causes the currently loaded Flight
Plan, if any, to be overwritten.
