SECTION 8: AUX PAGES
8.1 AUX PAGE GROUP
Section 2.1 introduced the GPS 500’s main page
groups (Table 8-1)—NAV, WPT, AUX, NRST—and
described each page in the NAV group. The third page
group (AUX) allows the pilot to change unit settings. The
AUX pages (Figure 8-1) also provide trip planning, fuel
planning, density altitude, true airspeed, and winds aloft
calculations.
