PROCEDURES
Flying a Course from Fix to Altitude
'Course from fix to altitude' legs shows the specific
target altitude on the active flight plan. This example is
based upon a flight from KSMO (Santa Monica Munici-
pal) to KPMD (Palmdale, CA) with VOR/DME RWY 25
approach selected, which includes a course from fix to
altitude leg. In this instance, the leg corresponds to the
initial phase of the missed approach, which reads "Climb
to 5000 outbound via PMD VOR R-282".
After crossing the MAP, press the SUSP softkey.
1.
The missed approach sequence is automatically
offered, starting with the course from fix to
altitude leg. The 'NEXT DTK 282°' waypoint
message is displayed in the navigation status
bar on the PFD. Follow the missed approach
procedures, as published on your approach
plate, for proper climb and heading instruc-
tions.
2. Note that within a few seconds of pressing
the SUSP softkey to release suspend mode and
start the missed approach sequence, 'SUSP'
re-is displayed above the SUSP softkey as the
G1000 returns to suspend mode. This is normal
when flying a course from a fix to altitude leg
and indicates that automatic leg sequencing
is suspended.
3. Fly the outbound course keeping the CDI needle
centered. The Navigation Map Page depicts the
flight path extending indefinitely from the PMD
VOR. The distance increases and indicates the
distance back to the PMD VOR.
4. Upon reaching the desired altitude (5000),
press SUSP to return to automatic leg sequenc-
ing. Confirm that 'SUSP' no longer is displayed
directly above the SUSP softkey.

5. The message 'NEXT DTK 133°' is displayed,
guiding you to the inbound course. The actual
desired track (DTK) depends on your ground
speed and distance from PMD VOR. Intercept
and fly the inbound course, keeping the CDI
needle centered.
6. As you approach PMD VOR (the missed
approach holding point), a message in the
navigation status bar recommends the holding
pattern entry 'HOLD PARALLEL'.
7. Note that the G1000 again displays 'SUSP'
above the SUSP softkey. Automatic waypoint
sequencing is suspended at the missed
approach holding point. The waypoint mes-
sage (ARRIVING AT WAYPOINT) is displayed
each time you approach the PMD VOR in the
holding pattern.
8. When leaving the holding pattern, press the
PROC key to reactivate the approach or select
a different approach, or press the Direct-To key
to select another destination.
