FMS Pages 2-13
The FMS Course function will be exited when the airplane
intercepts the active waypoint in a To intercept or when
intercepting a downpath leg in the From case. Pressing the nav
source knob while the FMS course function is active will also
cancel the FMS Course mode and return to GPS as the active
nav source mode. The FMS Course will remain active if a From
course is dialed and the airplane does not intercept the FPL.
VLOC Method
If the Nav Source knob is set to VLOC as the active nav mode
and a VOR station is tuned and received, then use the external
course knob on the CDI/HSI/EFIS/etc to set the desired inbound
or outbound radial as required.
DELETING A FLIGHT PLAN
Select the “Routes” tab of the FMS page. Use the bottom right
IFD knob to scroll to the desired flight plan in the list or touch the
flight plan to highlight the route. Press the “CLR” button on the
bezel and a green confirm dialog box pops up. Press “Enter” or
“Cancel” LSKs or use the bezel “ENTR” or “CLR” buttons to finish
the deletion.
CREATING A HOLDING PATTERN
A hold can be put on any waypoint that has a fix terminated leg –
waypoints that terminate with a lat or lon position such as
navaids, enroute waypoints, user waypoints, airports, etc. Legs
that terminate at an altitude, DME distance, radial crossings, etc.
do not support attaching a hold.
Use the edit cursor on the flight plan to select the waypoint of
interest, then push the bottom right IFD knob or touch the desired
location to display a drop down list of options. Near the top of that
list, you will see “Hold at <waypoint name>”. Scroll to highlight
that drop down list entry and push the knob again. You have just
added a holding leg, populated with standard hold data.
Alternatively, use an insert cursor by positioning it where you
want to insert a hold in your flight plan. Push in the bottom right
IFD knob or touch the position on the glass. Note that a hold is
available via the drop down list. Scroll up or down the dropdown
list as required and push the bottom right knob or touch the hold
