NRST
The Nearest Pages list up to five nearest flight service station (FSS) and air route traffic control
center (ARTCC) points of communication. The closest communication point—along with frequency(s),
bearing to and distance—is displayed first, with additional points available when selected. For duplex
operation, the corresponding VOR is listed (by identifier) and the transmit and receive frequencies are
denoted by a ‘TX’ and ‘RX’ respectively.
To view additional communication frequencies:
1. Display the Nearest Pages by following the steps on page 60.
2. Use the ROCKER KEYPAD to select the ‘ARTCC’ or ‘FSS’ file tab, as desired.
3. Use the DOWN portion of the ROCKER KEYPAD to highlight the ‘CENTER’ or ‘STATION’ field
(depending upon selection of ‘ARTCC’ or ‘FSS’ tab) and press ENTER.
4. Select the desired numbered item from the list and press ENTER to display the communication
information. (The lowest numbers on the list are the closest communication points.)
Nearest Airspace Information
When an airspace alert is provided, the Nearest Pages automatically default to display nearby
airspace information. This information includes name, time to entry (if applicable) and status. Up to
four nearby airspaces will be listed. Normally, only one or two airspace alerts will occur at a time, but
with sectorized controlled airspace (such as many Class B areas) you may have more.
Status information can appear as follows:
• Ahead—your projected course will take you inside an airspace within the next ten minutes or less.
• Near—you are within two nautical miles of an airspace, but not projected to enter it.
• Near & Ahead—you are within two nautical miles of an airspace and your current course will
take you inside the airspace.
• Inside Airspace—you are within the boundaries of the airspace.
To view additional points of communication, select the
desired point from the numbered list. The lowest numbers
correspond to the closest points.
When airspace alerts are issued, pressing NRST will
automatically display airspace information—including
airspace name, time to entry (when applicable) and status.
