Line 3: Actual track (Track) — the aircraft’s present track over the
ground. If you are trying to establish a heading on a new leg of your
flight, it is very helpful to look at the difference between the actual
track and the desired track, and adjust your heading accordingly to
allow for crosswind.

Line 4: Bearing (Brg) — the magnetic bearing from present position
to the active waypoint.

4.12. WAYPOINT PAGES

NOTE: Each of the waypoint page types includes a cyclic field which
displays present magnetic bearing to or magnetic heading from the
waypoint. Due to “great circle” courses and magnetic variation
differences between present position and the active waypoint, the To
bearing and From radial may not be exactly 180° different from each
other. This condition is most likely to occur when long distances are
involved, and/or you are operating in very northerly or southerly
latitudes. See

section 4.11.1

and

figure 4-154

for more details.
