Approach Data Procedures

WARNING: The EKP-IV is not certified for use as the only navigation device during Instrument
Flight Rules as established by the FAA. Instrument approach points displayed in the unit are for
information only and do not establish authority for a pilot to fly the IFR approach procedure in
actual instrument flying conditions. For IFR flight. The final "Approach Segment & Missed
Approach Point" the EKP-IV is to be used strictly as a monitoring instrument only.
An approach procedure is a series of pre-determined maneuvres for the orderly
transfer of an aircraft, under instrument flight conditions, from the beginning
of the initial approach to a point from which a safe landing may be made visu-
ally. Generally, the approach pattern and procedure is not chosen until arrival
in close proximity of the destination airport, since conditions may change on
route. To activate an "Approach" it is necessary to have an active "Flight Plan"
or "GOTO".
For each airport with at least one published final approach, there exists one or
more named approach procedures. Each approach procedure can be related to
a runway and to nearby NavAids (such as ILS, VOR, NDB, GPS...).

9.1 APPROACH FROM THE MOVING MAP

NOTE
You must start with an empty flight plan.
While navigating or planning in the moving map screen, the pilot will not be
able to establish an approach on a flight plan, without changing into the Flight
Plan mode, but can place the cursor over the selected airport. To display the
quick data box press:
> 'ENTER' 1 sec + 'ENTER' (for detailed information).
The detailed information on the airport will be displayed, beginning with the
general information and frequencies. By pressing the cursor key on the left, the
approaches for the chosen airport will display in the box and the bearing for
the viewed approach will display on the moving map. By continuing to press
the cursor key on the left the other approaches for the airport will display, the
last bearing for the last approach viewed will become white on the moving
map and the bearing for the viewed approach will be displayed in black on the
moving map.
NOTE
The white approach bearings will disappear once the screen redraws itself.
