SECTION 1

INTRODUCTION

IFR Procedures

Once the direct-to or flight plan is confirmed, the whole

range of instrument procedures is available to the pilot.
Departures (SIDs), arrivals (STARs), and non-precision
and precision approaches are stored within the NavData
Card and are available using the PROC (procedures) Key.

Displaying the Procedures Page:

Press the PROC Key (Figure 1-21).

Figure 1-21 Procedures Page

This introductory section shows examples of the steps

required to select and activate a departure, arrival, or an
approach.

Selecting a departure, arrival, or an
approach:

1) Turn the large right knob to select the desired

option (‘Select Departure?’, ‘Select Arrival?’
or ‘Select Approach?’) from the Procedures
Page.

2) Press the ENT Key to display a list of available

procedures for the departure (when using SIDs)
or arrival (when using approaches or STARs)
airport.

3) Turn the small right knob to select the desired

procedure and press the ENT Key.

4) For approaches, a window appears (Figure

1-22) to select the desired initial approach
fix (IAF) or provide a ‘vectors’ option to select
just the final course segment of the approach.
Turn the small right knob to select the desired
option and press the ENT Key. The ‘vectors’
option extends the final inbound course beyond
the final approach fix, allowing the pilot to
intercept the final course segment beyond its
normal limits.

5) For departures and arrivals, a window appears

to select the desired transition. Turn the small
right knob to select the desired option and
press the ENT Key.

In the flight plan or direct-to, the departure or arrival

airport is replaced with the sequence of waypoints
contained within the selected procedure.
