Basic GPS Operation

Chapter 3

The nearest special use airspace feature is constantly keeping track
of the five nearest areas of SUA. Pressing the

G

button and

selecting the SUA option will display
the SUA 1 page (figure 3-89) for the
nearest SUA to your location, includ-
ing those which you are inside. Turn
to

section 3.15

to learn more about

how an altitude input affects special
use airspace sensing and how the

KLN 35A determines if you are inside special use airspace or not.

The SUA 1 page displays the following information:

Line 1: The name of the special use airspace area.

Line 2: The SUA type (see the list of abbreviations above, this
particular SUA is Class B airspace), and the sequence number (1st
nearest, 2nd nearest, etc.).

Line 3: The altitude limits of the SUA.

Line 4: The proximity of the nearest point on the border of the SUA,
in the form of the absolute bearing, relative bearing, and distance to
the SUA border. The absolute bearing is the approximate heading
you would fly to most quickly get into the SUA. The relative bearing
arrow in the middle of this line points to the SUA border, telling you if
it is directly ahead of you (

), straight off your left wing ( ), etc.

Finally, the distance to the SUA in nautical miles is displayed on the
right side of line 4.

If the aircraft is inside the SUA, line 4 will read A/C INSIDE SUA, if
you are above or below the SUA, as indicated by the encoding
altimeter, line 4 will tell you this (A/C ABOVE SUA or A/C BELOW
SUA
).

A single clockwise turn of the right
inner knob selects the SUA 2 page,
which displays either the controlling
ATC facility (figure 3-90), or if the spe-
cial use airspace is a Class B, Class
C, CTA, or TMA, the page will be dis-
played as in figure 3-91, instructing
you to press

E

to see the APT 4

page (airport communications) for the
primary airport so that the correct
communications frequency may be
determined.
