NEAREST AIRPORT CRITERIA
The pilot can define the minimum runway length and surface type used when
determining the 15 nearest airports to display. A minimum runway length and/or
surface type can be entered to prevent airports with small runways or runways that
are not appropriately surfaced from being displayed. Default settings are 0 feet (or
meters) for runway length and "Any" for runway surface type. Private airports and
Heliports can also be included.
The Nearest Airports Option Menu also allows the pilot to choose between displaying
the facility names, city names, bearing, or direction arrows.
Setting nearest airport criteria:
Refer to Section 1.7 'Airport Criteria Settings'.
