The Procedure mode allows you to add or modify procedures to standard locations within the active flight
plan. No options will be available if there is not an active flight plan. When you start adding or modifying
procedures, a modified (copy of the active) flight plan is created. You can only change the Origin approach and
departure procedures, Destination arrival and approach procedures, and select an alternate airport. At the bot-
tom of the screen, the flight plan status of either Active or Modified will be shown.

Selecting Procedures

1. Press FN and then the PROC function smart key.
2. Press the Appch (Approach), Depart (Departure), or Arrival menu item smart keys for the Origin or
Destination (Dest) waypoints.
3. For approaches, a list of procedure types is shown on the right side of the screen. Pressing the menu
item key next to the procedure type (GPS, ILS, LOC, VOR, or NDB) will make those types available on the
top line of the screen.
4. Use the Large knob to move between fields and the Small knob to scroll through the available
procedure choices. A representative map is shown below the procedure name.
5. You can press the BACK function smart key to back up to the main Procedure page without making
any changes.
6. Press Menu/Enter to select the procedure. This inserts it into the Modified Flight Plan and proceeding to
Flight Plan Edit mode for review and execution.

Activating an Approach

After selecting the procedures for your flight plan, press the EXEC function smart key to activate the modi-
fied flight plan with the added procedures. When you press the EXEC key, you will be prompted to press the
Menu/Enter key to replace the Active flight plan with the Modified flight plan. Pressing BACK takes you back
to the Procedures page without activating the modified plan. Pressing the VTF (Vector To Final) key creates
and activates a leg in the flight plan that is an extension of the Final Approach Course beyond the FAF.
