3.11. WAYPOINT PAGES

NOTE: Each of the waypoint page types includes a cyclic field which
displays present magnetic bearing to or magnetic radial 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 3.10.1 and figure 3-113 for more details.

3.11.1. AIRPORT PAGES

3.11.1.1. The Airport 1 (APT 1) Page

See figure 3-132.

Line 1: The ICAO identifier (see
section 2.3) of the airport; an arrow
precedes the identifier if it is the
active waypoint. The airport elevation
above MSL in feet, which is rounded

to the nearest 10 feet.

Line 2: The name of the airport.

Line 3: The city where the airport is located.

Line 4: The State if the airport is located in the U.S., the Province if
located in Canada, or the country if outside the U.S. and Canada. A
listing of the abbreviations used for States, Provinces, and countries
is contained in Appendix D. The right side of line 4 will read
MILITARY if it is a military airport (Figure 3-133) or PRIVATE if it is a

private-use airport.

If the airport is being viewed as part
of the

nearest airports list (see sec-

tion 3.8.1, “Viewing the Nearest
Waypoints”), the APT 1 page format
will differ as follows (see
figure 3-134):

Line 1: After the airport identifier, the
number designating the airport’s posi-
tion in the nearest airport list is
displayed. In figure 3-134, KLIT is
the third nearest airport.
