3.9.3. WAYPOINT ALERTING FOR DIRECT TO OPERATION

Approximately 36 seconds prior to reaching a Direct To waypoint, the
arrow preceding the waypoint identifier on the waypoint page for the
active waypoint will begin flashing. This arrow will also be flashing on
any NAV or FPL page displaying the active waypoint identifier. This
is called “waypoint alerting”. If an external waypoint alert annunciator
is mounted in the aircraft, this annunciator will begin flashing at the
same time.

3.10. NAVIGATION PAGES

As you would expect, the NAV (navigation) pages contain information
relating specifically to the KLX 135A’s navigation capabilities. The
KLX 135A has five NAV pages. The procedure for selecting specific
pages, including the NAV pages, was described in section 3.4.1,
“Page Selection”.

3.10.1. THE NAVIGATION 1 (NAV 1) PAGE

The NAV 1 page is the primary
navigation display, and is shown in
figure 3-105. In normal flight, you will
probably want to view this page quite
often. A NAV 1 page displays the fol-
lowing information:

Line 1: The active navigation leg. For Direct To operation this con-
sists of the Direct To symbol,

∂∆

, followed by the active Direct To

waypoint identifier (figure 3-105). For the leg of a flight plan this con-
sists of the “from” waypoint identifier and the active “to” waypoint

identifier (figure 3-106). An arrow

precedes the active waypoint identifi-
er.

Line 2: A cyclic field which can either
be (1) a course deviation indicator
(CDI) that graphically displays left
and right deviation from desired track
(figure 3-106), or (2) The direction to
fly to intercept the desired track and
the crosstrack distance (figure 3-107).
In either case, the same information
is displayed. This is a cyclic field, so
you can change back and forth from
