NOTE: If the GNS 430 is unable to determine
a GPS position, the present position (airplane)
symbol does not appear on the Map Page.

Different symbols are used to distinguish between

waypoint types. The identifiers for any on-screen
waypoints can also be displayed. (The identifiers are
enabled by default.) Special-use and controlled airspace
boundaries appear on the map, showing the individual
sectors for Class B, Class C, and Class D airspaces.

Table 3-3 lists the symbols used to depict the various

airports and NAVAIDS on the Map Page:
