FLIGHT MANAGEMENT
Offset Distance
Original Track
Parallel Track
If the parallel track proposed by the offset direction and distance is not allowed by the system, the activation
prompt is displayed, but disabled. Parallel Track cannot be activated if a course is set using direct-to or if the
active leg is the first leg of the departure procedure. Attempting to activate parallel track with these conditions
results in the message 'Parallel Track Unavailable Invalid Route Geometry'. If an approach leg is active the status
indicates that the system is unable to activate the parallel track with the message 'Parallel Track Unavailable
Approach Leg Active'. If the offset direction and distance results in an unreasonable route geometry the status
indicates that the system is unable to activate the parallel track because of invalid geometry.
