2-2 FMS Pages

There are two types of cursors – an insert cursor and an edit

cursor. Rotate the “FMS” knob in the lower right corner of the IFD

to see the visual difference. The insert cursor will appear as a thin

blue horizontal line that appears between flight plan legs. This

allows you to insert new legs. The edit cursor appears as a wrap-

around blue box that encircles the entire leg and allows you to

edit an existing leg.

Insert Cursor

Edit Cursor

Individual fields within a leg can be edited by rotating the bottom

right inner IFD knob that highlights each editable field within the

flight plan. When the desired field is highlighted with reverse

video, push the knob to get into edit mode. Turn the knob to edit

the value or type via the keyboard, then push the knob again to

exit edit mode.

Using a combination of the push and rotation actions of the knob,

along with the dropdown boxes (explained below), an entire flight

plan can be entered within seconds.

CREATING A NEW FLIGHT PLAN

The first time the “Flight Plan” tab of the FMS page is accessed

following power-on, an empty flight plan page is presented with

the origin waypoint pre-populated. The origin will be the closest

airport to the current GPS position, or the airport from the

previous power down if GPS position has not locked on yet.

In almost every case, your hand can stay on the bottom right IFD

knob. Through a combination of pushes and turns, you can enter

the entire flight plan.
