EDITING SPEED, FUEL FLOW, AND FLIGHT PLAN NAME

The Plan Speed and Fuel Flow fields are for flight planning purposes. The values
entered are used by the GDU 37X to estimate flight plan parameters such as ETE and
Fuel Required (FUEL REQD). When on the ground or when reviewing a saved flight
plan the GDU uses Plan Speed to estimate values. When in the air the Plan Speed value
on the Active Flight Plan Page is replaced by actual GPS groundspeed. The GDU 37X
does not have a means of measuring fuel flow so the entered Fuel Flow value is still
used for fuel related calculations.
Adjusting the Active Flight Plan fuel flow:
1) Press the FPL Key and turn the FMS Joystick to display the Active Flight
Plan Page.
2) If an external navigator is configured, press the INTERNAL Softkey.
3) Press the FMS Joystick to activate the cursor, and move the FMS Joystick to
highlight the 'Plan Fuel' field.
4) Using the FMS Joystick, enter the desired plan flow, and press the ENT Key.
