To calculate distance, bearing, and time from waypoint to
waypoint:

1.

From the CAL 1 page
(figure 4-51), turn on the cursor
(

B

). It will appear over a cyclic

field that either displays Wpt
(waypoint to waypoint) or Fpl
(flight plan).

2.

For this type of calculation, the
cyclic field should display Wpt.
Press

E

to toggle if this is not

the case (figure 4-52).

3.

Turn the right outer knob
clockwise to move the cursor to
the "from" waypoint in the upper
right corner of the screen
(figure 4-53).

4.

Enter the desired identifier for the
"from" waypoint and press

F

.

You will be shown the waypoint

page for the waypoint you entered. Press

F

again to approve.

NOTE: On either of the two waypoint fields on this page, you can
select your present position. To do this, press

E

while the cursor is

on the desired waypoint field. The results will only be displayed
when your KLN 35A is receiving a valid position, or if you happen to
be in the Take Home mode (see

section 4.7

).

5.

With the cursor over the "to"
waypoint, enter the desired
identifier (figure 4-54) and press

F

twice. The distance in

nautical miles and the bearing will
be displayed on line 3.

6.

Use the right outer knob to move the cursor over the
groundspeed field on line 4.

7.

Select your estimated
groundspeed for the trip. As you
change it, the estimated time en
route (ETE) calculation will be
updated (figure 4-55).
