4.6. CREATING USER-DEFINED WAYPOINTS

You may create and store up to 500 user-defined waypoints. These
waypoints will be very helpful to you. One major application is private
use airstrips, which are not included in the Jeppesen data base.
They are also handy for points which you fly over frequently, and
wish to navigate to. For example, a crop sprayer would want to store
the locations of the fields he or she dusts often.

There are three ways to create a user-defined waypoint. If you
happen to know the latitude and longitude of the point, that is one
option. The waypoint can also be defined as a radial and distance
from another waypoint. A third choice is just to store your present
position under the identifier you have chosen.

NOTE: Whenever you are in a waypoint entry situation, such as a
Direct To waypoint or flight plan, and you enter an identifier which is
not in the data base, the KLN 89(B) will automatically start the user-
defined waypoint creation process.
