Garmin GPS 92 - Manual (Page 27)

Airport Information
The GPS 92 features three airport pages:
• Airport location— allows entry of desired airport
by identifier, facility name or city and displays lat-
itude, longitude, elevation; and fuel availability.
• Airport communication— allows entry of
desired airport by identifier and displays radio fre-
quencies and any usage restrictions.
• Airport runway— allows entry of desired airport
by identifier, displays runway designations, length,
surface and lighting information, and/or pilot-
controlled lighting frequencies.
To scroll through the airport pages:
1. Select the airport category and enter the desired airport
identifier. (The airport page initially displayed will be the
same as the last airport page viewed.)
2. Use the left arrow key to move the field highlight to the
desired page prompt and press
E
.
Once you have moved from the initial airport page
displayed, the page prompt will automatically move for-
ward to the next available prompt. This allows you to
continuously cycle through the airport pages by simply
pressing
E
repeatedly.
To exit the airport pages and return to the previously
viewed page:
1. Press
Q

The internal database uses
ICAO identifiers for all air-
port names. All U. S. air-
ports which contain only
letters use the prefix ‘K’.
For example, Los Angeles
International is KLAX
under the ICAO standard.
Other airports, such as
Otten Memorial (3VS), that
contain numbers in the
identifier, do not require the
‘K’ prefix. Many countries
outside the U. S. use two
letter prefixes. For more
information, contact the
International Civil Aviation
Organization.
