option you can resync from your current position to the destination waypoint.

6.7 GoTo flIGhT PlAnS

A GoTo Flight Plan is a one leg direct Flight Plan to a specified Database object or cursor position

on the Moving Map.

6.7.1 GoTo - database mode

To activate a GoTo Flight Plan within a Database page (see Chapter 8) press ‘GOTO’. Doing this will

deactivate the current Flight Plan and redraw the screen to the Moving Map page. All navigation

information is now related to this object.

To Deactivate the GoTo Flight Plan, from the Moving Map screen press ‘GOTO’. A GoTo Menu box

will appear with the option to deactivate. Pressing “DEACTIVATE FP” will cancel the navigation

data and place the Geopilot II Plus in a Plotter Mode without an active Flight Plan.

If a Flight Plan was active prior to the GOTO, the Flight Plan will resume as active.
