Navigate

Navigation is one of the most powerful reasons for owning an AirMap,
and has already been addressed in Sec. 3. Land navigation is just as
useful, though. Just like the air navigation options, you can get accu-
rate information about where you want to go, how to get there, how
long it will take, and other useful trip information.

Navigate Back to Man Overboard Waypoint
In Land Mode, this unit has a man overboard feature that shows navi-
gation data to the location where the feature was activated. (This fea-
ture replaces Aviation Mode's "Find Nearest Airport" shortcut.) To acti-
vate it, press the

ZOUT

and

ZIN

keys at the same time. Your position at

the time these keys are pressed is used as the man overboard position.
The unit automatically begins navigating to the MOB waypoint.
