4.2. OPERATING FROM THE ACTIVE FLIGHT PLAN
4.2.1.
GENERAL PROCEDURES
Everything you have learned in this Pilot’s Guide thus far is
applicable to using the KLX 135A for flight plan operation. The
following rules and considerations apply for flight plan operation while
the KLX 135A is in the En route-Leg mode:
•
Always verify that you are viewing the active flight plan page
(FPL 0) and not one of the other numbered flight plan pages.
•
The active leg of the flight plan is designated with a
symbol.
A leg is defined as the course line between a pair of waypoints (a
“from” waypoint and a “to” waypoint). The head of the arrow is
positioned to the left of and points to the active “to” waypoint. In
figure 4-27, SLC (Salt Lake City
VOR) is the “to” waypoint. The
tail of the
symbol is positioned
to the left of the “from” waypoint.
KPVU (Provo Municipal) is the
“from” waypoint in figure 4-27.
The
symbol is not displayed
unless the KLX 135A is actually receiving GPS signals suitable
for navigation.
(Note: If the unit is in the take-home mode, it has
been “tricked” into thinking it is receiving signals and therefore
the
symbol can be displayed). Also, the
symbol will not be
displayed if Direct To navigation
is occurring and the Direct To
waypoint is not in FPL 0. If in
doubt as to whether or not Direct
To operation is occurring, view
the NAV 1 page. If the top line
shows the
∂
∂∆
∆
symbol (figure
4-28) instead of a “from” waypoint
(figure 4-29), then Direct To navi-
gation is occurring. If it is desired
to cancel the Direct To operation
and operate from the active flight
plan, press
D
,
E
, and then
F
.
