5.

Use the same process to select
an “R” and then a “D”
(figure 3-68). You are now view-
ing the APT 1 page for KORD.

The KLN 35A feature of filling in characters of the identifier can be a
time saver! For a second example, let’s select Bloomington VOR
whose identifier is BMI.

More selecting a waypoint by identifier:

1.

Make sure you have turned the
cursor off from the previous
example. With the right knobs,
select the VOR 1 page
(figure 3-69).

2.

Turn the cursor (

B

) on.

3.

Change the first character to a “B”
(figure 3-70).

4.

Move the cursor to the second
character and select “M”
(figure 3-71). Eureka! When you
entered the “M”, the KLN 35A
searched its data base for the first
VOR identifier beginning with the
letters “BM” and found BMI.
Many times you will only have to
enter two or three characters of
the waypoint identifier and the KLN 35A will furnish the rest.

5.

Turn off the cursor (

B

).

3.7.2. SELECTING WAYPOINTS BY SCANNING

You may also select waypoints by scanning through them. This may
be done with the cursor either on or off.

To select a waypoint by scanning with the cursor off:

1.

Select the page type for the waypoint you are looking for (APT,
VOR, NDB, or SUP).

2.

Pull the right inner knob to the “out” position.
