its final destination in the box under the Flight Plan Number. You can select any flight plan

RATION
If the selected flight plan is already running, Key 5 will read FPLN OFF. If there is no active
flight plan, Key 5 will be blank and Key 2 will read SELECT. Pressing Key 2 will call Screen
12, Flight Plan Program/Edit Screen for the selected flight plan. An active flight plan can be
switched off at any time by pressing Key 5, FPLN OFF.
Pressing Key 5 will cancel the active flight plan and allow you to gain access to what was
the active flight plan. (In the interests of safety, the software has been designed not to
permit you to edit and fly a flight plan at the same time.)
Pressing Key 4 gives a shortcut to Screen 60, the E6-B Trip/Fuel Planning Screen (see
Trip/Fuel Planning in the E6B Calculator Section of this Manual for more detail).
Whenever Screen 60 is displayed the flight plan selected on Screen 42 will automatically
be shown.
