TRIP PLANNING USING
PRESENT POSITION
For planning purposes the
internal calculator can be used
to determine such things as
time, distance and required fuel
to waypoints, for another flight
plan or for modifications to the
active flight plan. This is done
by inserting the aircraft’s prese-
nt position into a desired sce-
nario and using the data view
of the Active Flight Plan Page
and selecting the desired data
columns to present the needed
information.
The following example illus-
trates checking time, distance
and required fuel to KDSM
while navigating a flight plan
from KIXD to KOSH as shown
on Figure 1-154.
1. Perform the following
steps to create a new flight
plan as previously discussed.
2. Enter the desired destina-
tion (in this case KDSM) using
the Rotary Knob as shown in
Figure 1-155.
3. Press the OK Softkey to
display Figure 1-156.
