NOTE

If you attempt to modify or delete a waypoint which is currently a
direct-to waypoint or the current “from” or “to” waypoint in the active
flight plan, the GNS 430 will alert you with the “Can’t change an active
waypoint” or “Waypoint is active and can’t be deleted” message. You
must first cancel the direct-to or remove the waypoint(s) from the active
flight plan before modifying or deleting the waypoint(s).
