INSERTING OR DELETING OFF-AIRWAY WAYPOINTS WITHIN AIRWAYS
The pilot is always allowed to insert or delete waypoints within an airway segment. Except for inserting or
deleting airway "optional" waypoints, it will usually have the effect of breaking one airway segment into two
pieces. For example, consider the original airway segment as follows:
ABI
Airway – V16.TXK
UKW
BYP
PRX
TXK
If "non-optional" waypoint BYP is deleted from the middle, the single airway sequence becomes two
sequences because the resultant sequence UKW-PRX is now off-airway. The results are the same if an off-
airway waypoint is inserted.
ABI
Airway – V16.UKW
UKW
PRX
Airway – V16.TXK
TXK
Deleting the entry waypoint (ABI), creates a new entry waypoint and the airway header moves down as
shown here:
UKW
Airway – V16.TXK
BYP
PRX
TXK
