FLIGHT PLANS
Flight Plan Catalog Options
The following options (some covered on the preceding
pages) are available for the Flight Plan Catalog Page:
• ‘Activate Flight Plan?’ - Allows the pilot to
select the flight plan for navigation guidance, as
described previously in this section.
• ‘Invert & Activate FPL?’ - Allows the pilot to
reverse the highlighted flight plan and select it for
navigation guidance, as described previously in
this section.
• ‘Create New Flight Plan?’ - Allows the pilot to
create a new flight plan, as described previously in
this section.
• ‘Crossfill?’ - Allows the pilot to transfer a Direct-to
destination, the active flight plan, any stored flight
plan or user waypoints to a second 400/500-series
Garmin unit. Some crossfill operations can be
done automatically. If both units are set to ‘auto’,
a change in the direct-to destination or active
flight plan on one unit is seen on the other. For
additional information, see Section 9.2, Flight
Planning Page: Crossfill.
Crossfilling flight plans between two
400/500-Series Garmin units:
1) Select the ‘Crossfill?’ option from the Flight
Plan Catalog Page Menu (Figure 5-13) and
press the ENT Key.

2) Turn the large right knob to select the
‘Method’ field (Figure 5-14).
Figure 5-14 Crossfill Page
3) Turn the small right knob to select ‘Auto’
or ‘Manual’ and press the ENT Key. ‘Auto’
automatically transfers the active flight plan or
Direct-to selection to another 400/500-series
Garmin unit, without user intervention.
4) If ‘Manual’ is selected: Turn the large right
knob to select the ‘Transfer’ field, then turn
the small right knob to select the type of
information to transfer between units (active
flight plan, flight plan, all user waypoints or
a single user waypoint). When ‘Flight Plan’
or ‘User Waypoint’ is selected, a second field
appears to the immediate right of the ‘Transfer’
field. Use the small and large right knobs to
enter the number of the flight plan or the name
of the user waypoint to be transferred.
