Airspace Interrogation
In order to interrogate a piece of airspace in MAP Mode, move the joystick operated pointer
and point at one of the airspace boundaries. After you have released the joystick, the
software will search the airspace database and after a short time will re-draw the piece of
airspace to which you have pointed in a bolder line. IMPORTANT: When a single airspace
boundary line is shared by two different pieces of airspace (which is very common), the
airspace with the lower vertical limit will always be highlighted.
Once you are sure the piece of airspace highlighted is the piece you want information on
(you may have to zoom out to verify this, but beware, some airspace switches off as you
zoom out dependant on the settings made in Screen 22C, Airspace Data Class Setup
Screen), press MORE INFO key and Screen 40B, Airspace Information Screen, will be
displayed.
