5.3 POINTS TO REMEMBER FOR ALL

APPROACHES

• The GPS 500 is designed to complement printed

approach plates and vastly improve situational
awareness throughout the approach. However,
the pilot must always fly an approach as it appears
on the approach plate.

• The active leg (or the portion of the approach

currently in use) is depicted in magenta on the
Map Page. When flying the approach, the GPS
500 automatically sequences through each leg
of the approach unless ‘SUSP’ appears above
the OBS Key. ‘SUSP’ indicates that automatic
sequencing of approach waypoints is suspended
on the current leg and normally appears at
holding patterns and upon crossing the missed
approach point (MAP).
