3. If there is any waypoint page (APT, VOR, NDB, SUP, or ACT

3.9.1. INITIATING A DIRECT TO
Now that you know the ground rules, let’s go ahead and try some
practical examples. First, let’s say we wanted to fly directly to
Wexford County Airport in Cadillac, Michigan. Its ICAO identifier is
KCAD.
To fly Direct To a waypoint (procedure 1):
1. Press
D
. The Direct To page is
displayed (figure 3-96). The
cursor will already be on. A
waypoint identifier may or may
not be displayed, it doesn’t matter
at this point.
2. Rotate the right inner knob to
select the first character of the
desired waypoint’s identifier, in
this case, a “K” (figure 3-97).
Remember to enter the “K”, “C”,
or “P” prefix for certain airports in
North America, if required (see
section 2.3 , “ICAO Identifiers”).
3. Turn the right outer knob one
click clockwise to move the flash-
ing portion of the cursor over the
second character position
(figure 3-98).
