if you want to continue your own navigation with a
regular runway extension.)
When you select Runway Guidance, the unit will display a localizer-
type fan and create a route automatically for guidance down the run-
way's extended centerline. Once selected, however, you are no longer
navigating your earlier route, because the AirMap assumes you are on
radar vectors or your own vectors to intercept final.
The HSI and all other CDI displays will now be set to the inbound
runway course and will give guidance to left or right of centerline via
the CDI display. However, the hollow (white) bearing arrow will con-
tinue to point to the runway touchdown zone (TDZ).
The automatic route will be created and set to track inbound on the
extended runway's centerline from any distance from the airport. If you
desire, you can navigate to the notch of the fan for an approximate five
mile final approach. Just press (

and se-
lect the LOC waypoint in the route.
If you plan a short approach and want to bypass the use of runway cen-
terline guidance, and navigate directly to the runway threshold, you
can press

R

and select the TDZ waypoint
in the route.
When the Runway Approach Guidance feature is working, after pass-
ing the TDZ the route sequences to the runway center, and then the
airport center. After landing and turning the AirMap off, this tempo-
rary route is automatically deleted.
Tip:
For an even more complete runway guidance display, turn on the
"Markers" (outer marker) subcategory in the Aviation category. See
the Map Categories Drawn topic for more information.
