TAKEOFF TOUR
IFR Procedures
Once the direct-to or fl ight plan is confi rmed, the whole range of instrument pro-
cedures is available to you. Departures (SIDs), arrivals (STARs), non-precision and
precision approaches are stored within the NavData card and available using the
P
(procedures) key.
To display the procedures page, press
P
.
The steps required to select and activate an approach, departure or arrival are identi-
cal. In this introductory section, we’ll show examples of the steps required to select an
approach, but keep in mind the same process also applies to departures and arrivals.
To select an approach, departure or arrival:
1. Rotate the small right knob (

Arrival?” or “Select Departure?”) from the procedures page.
2. Press

to display a list of available procedures for the arrival (when using approaches or
STARs) or departure (when using SIDs) airport.
3. Rotate the small right knob (
a
) to select the desired procedure and press
E
.
4. For approaches, a window appears to select the desired initial approach fix (IAF) or provide a
“vectors” option to select just the final course segment of the approach. Rotate the small right
knob (
a
) to select the desired option and press
E
. (The “vectors” option extends the final
inbound course beyond the final approach fix, allowing you to intercept the final course seg-
ment beyond its normal limits.)
5. For departures and arrivals, a window appears to select the desired transition. Rotate the small
right knob (
a
) to select the desired option and press
E
.
In your fl ight plan or direct-to, the departure or arrival airport is replaced with the
sequence of waypoints contained within the selected procedure.

page. Rotate the large right knob (
