3.8.1.2 Continuous Display of Nearest Airport

When the nearest airport page is initially displayed, “1” is displayed in
the upper right hand corner of the page to designate this airport as
the nearest airport. However, if you continue to fly along your flight
plan with this page selected, the same airport will be displayed and
its position in the nearest airport list will change from 1 to 2, 3, 4 ... 9
until finally it won’t be in the nearest airport list at all. The reason for
this is that in the event of an actual emergency once you have
determined which airport you are heading for, you don’t want the
nearest airport list to update while you are maneuvering or looking up
data on the other airport pages for that airport.

There may be times, however, when you’re flying over “unfriendly”
terrain when you wish to always have the nearest airport displayed
on the screen.

To display the nearest airport continuously:

1.

Display the nearest airport page by pressing

G

followed by

pressing

F

.

2.

Turn on the cursor (

B

).

3.

Rotate the right outer knob
clockwise to position the cursor
over “1” (figure 3-92). As long as
the cursor is left in this position,
this page will update so that the
nearest airport is always shown as the flight progresses.
