In the same manner, the nearest VORs and/or airports may be
selected by first using the right outer
knob to move the cursor over the
VOR or APT selection field and then
using the right inner knob to select on
or off. The example in figure 3-129
shows SUAs and airports having
been selected.

When the desired selections have
been made, press the

B

button to

remove the menu from the screen
(figure 3-130). Notice that the nearest
airports are depicted with a small

#

symbol, while the VORs are shown as
a small box (

).

One last item of interest on this page: you may change the active
waypoint to any of the flight plan waypoints without having to leave
the map display. This is done by pulling the right inner knob to the
“out” or “scan” position. This will cause the identifier for the active
waypoint to be displayed in the bottom right corner of the screen

(figure 3-131). The waypoint
displayed in this area will be the
default waypoint when

D

is

pressed. By turning the right inner
knob it is possible to scan through the
waypoints of the active flight plan
(FPL 0). Turning the knob clockwise
will scan through the waypoints in sequence until the end of the flight
plan is reached. Turning the knob counter-clockwise will scan
through the active flight plan in reverse order until the beginning of
the flight plan is reached. Pushing the right inner knob back to the
“in” position will remove this text from the map display area.

The following hints will make using the NAV 4 page more enjoyable.

• It is easy to clutter the display with so much data that it is unus-

able. Select a range scale that allows an uncluttered
presentation of the chosen SUAs, VORs, and airports. Or,
select another combination of these from the menu.
Experiment and continue to make new selections for different
phases of your trip.
