In addition to being used to define a GOTO
destination, the NavTalk Pilot’s #/GOTO (NRST) key can
also be used to view detailed information on the nine
nearest airports, VORs, NDBs, intersections, user
waypoints, cities, exits and geographical points within
200 miles of your present position. Information
regarding the five nearest FSS (flight service station) and
center (ARTCC) remote communications outlets, along
with associated frequencies is available from the Nearest
Page, as well. When an airspace alert is provided, the
Nearest Page will even provide additional detail about the
airspace. Nearest information is selected by choosing the
appropriate ‘file tab’, based upon the desired information,
then highlight the item of interest and press ENTER. The
figure to the right lists the file tabs and information
available under each tab.
To view the Nearest Pages
1. Press and hold the #/GOTO key for two (2) seconds.
2. Select the desired information by highlighting the
appropriate tab from the chart.
Additional information is stored in the unit’s Jeppesen
database. This information may be retrieved using the
‘Waypoints’ option on the Main Menu, but it is also
available from the Nearest Page.
To view additional information for a nearest
airport, VOR, NDB, intersection, user waypoint
or airspace:
1. Highlight the desired item (from the Nearest Page)
using the ARROW keypad.
2. Press ENTER to view the database information for
the selected item.
3. Press QUIT to return to the Nearest Page.
You can easily set a GOTO course directly to a nearest
waypoint. In an emergency, a few simple keystrokes can
guide you to the closest point to land. (See page 106 for
more detail about the GOTO features.)
The Nearest Page
organizes the nearest
airports, navaids, FSS,
center and airspace
information by ‘file tab’
headings. Select the
appropriate tab for the
desired information.
Nearest airspace
information is
available on the
Nearest Page, once an
airspace alert has been
provided.
