Airport Information
We've already mentioned the waypoint information screen – this screen
pops up whenever you view the details of a selected item from the map,
or when you select an item from a search list. Different information
appears on the information screen depending on what kind of map ob-
ject you have selected. Earlier, we had an example of a VOR informa-
tion screen, complete with radio frequency and Morse identifier.
