Line 3: The altitude limits of the SUA.

Line 4: The proximity of the nearest point on the border of the SUA, in the
form of the absolute bearing, relative bearing, and distance to the SUA
border. The absolute bearing is the approximate heading you would fly to
most quickly get into the SUA. The relative bearing arrow in the middle of
this line points to the SUA border, telling you if it is directly ahead of you
(

↑), straight off your left wing (←), etc. The bearing and distance are not

displayed if the aircraft is inside, above or below an SUA. Finally, the dis-
tance to the SUA is displayed on the right side of line 4.

If the aircraft is inside the SUA, line 4 will read *A/C INSIDE SUA*, if you
are above or below the SUA, as indicated by the encoding altimeter, line 4
will indicate this (*A/C ABOVE SUA* or *A/C BELOW SUA*).

A single clockwise turn of the right
inner knob selects the SUA 2 page,
which displays either the controlling
ATC facility (figure 3-89), or if the
special use airspace is a Class B,
Class C, CTA, or TMA, the page will
be displayed as in figure 3-90,
instructing you to press

E to see

the APT 5 page (airport communica-
tions) for the primary airport so that
the correct communications frequen-
cy may be determined.

To scan through the remainder of the nearest SUA areas, pull the right
inner knob to the “out” position and turn it clockwise to view the SUA
pages for the second nearest through tenth nearest SUAs.

NOTE: The KLN 94 displays the ten nearest SUAs regardless of your
present altitude and the altitude limits of the SUA. For instance, it will
include SUAs specified as “Below 6000ft” even if you are cruising at
10,000 feet.

3.9.3. VIEWING THE NEAREST FLIGHT SERVICE STATION
FREQUENCIES

The KLN 94 stores in its database the locations of Flight Service Stations
(FSS) and their remote communications sites. In addition, the KLN 94
determines which two of these FSS points of communication are closest
to your present location. What a convenience for you! Next time you
want to file a flight plan from the air or contact an FSS for some other rea-
son, you can easily use the KLN 94 to determine a suitable FSS and the
appropriate frequency.
