The Moving Map page can be broken down into three

parts: the zoom and pan fields, located at the top of the
page; the moving map field; and speed distance and
angle fields, located at the bottom of the page. The
zoom and pan fields provide access to the map scale and
scrolling cursor functions, while the map field lets you
highlight on-screen airports and waypoints for immedi-
ate review. The speed, distance and angle fields are dis-
play fields only, and do not provide access to other functions.

The default placement of the cursor highlight is on

the zoom field. To move the cursor to the pan field or
through the on-screen waypoints, simply use the arrow
keypad to move in the desired direction, and press

E

to activate the function or review the selected waypoint.
Try selecting KAUS, located just to the right of your
current route, to practice:

1. With the field cursor on the zoom field, press the

D

key

repeatedly until the KAUS identifier is highlighted.

2. Press the

E

key to review the waypoint page for KAUS.

The waypoint location page for KAUS will appear,

p roviding you with the facility’s name and location
(city/state/region), with the elevation, latitude and longi-
tude of the field indicated on the bottom half of the
page. The fuel available (AV, jet or MOGAS) at the
facility is also displayed.
