4. As you approach the intermediate fix (CF25), a waypoint alert (“NEXT DTK 265°”) will appear. Make any
necessary course adjustments.
5. Within 2.0 nautical miles of the FAF (THERO), the GNS 430 will switch from terminal mode to approach
mode. (“APR” will appear in the lower left corner of the screen—replacing “TERM”.) CDI scaling will be
tightened from 1.0 to 0.3 nautical mile, full scale deflection.
6. As you approach the FAF, “NEXT DTK 265°” will appear in the lower right corner of the screen.
7. As you cross the FAF, the destination sequences to the MAP (MA25). With the CDI needle centered, fly
toward the MAP, observing the altitude minimums dictated by the approach plate.
8. As you approach the MAP, a waypoint alert (“APPRCHING WPT”) will appear in the lower right corner of
the screen.
9. As you cross the MAP, “SUSP” will appear above the
O
key, indicating that automatic sequencing of
approach waypoints is suspended at the MAP. If a missed approach is required, use the
O
key to
initiate the missed approach sequence, as outlined below.
TYPE 2: Course from fix to altitude
Course from fi x to altitude legs will show the specifi c target altitude on the active fl ight
plan and default NAV pages. The missed approach sequence for the Palmdale VOR/DME
RWY 25 approach includes a course from fi x to altitude leg. In this instance, the leg corre-
sponds to the initial phase of the missed approach, which reads “Climb to 5000’ outbound
via PMD VOR R-282”.
1. After crossing the MAP, press the
O
key. The missed approach sequence is automatically offered,
starting with the course from fix to altitude leg. The “NEXT DTK 282°” alert appears in the lower right
corner of the screen. Follow the missed approach procedures, as published on your approach plate, for
proper climb and heading instructions.
2. Note that within a few seconds of pressing
O
to release suspend mode and start the approach
sequence, “SUSP” re-appears above the
O
key as the GNS 430 returns to suspend mode. This
is normal when flying a course from fix to altitude leg and indicates that automatic leg sequencing is
suspended.
