Dalt/Tas/Winds - Garmin GTN 625 Pilot's Manual

14 UTILITIES
The Utilities page provides a group of features that will support your flight
planning to make them easier and more efficient. The Vertical Calculator (VCALC)
calculates the time to begin descent and vertical speed required to reach a desired
altitude at the chosen location. The Flight Timers feature provides a number of
timer types to assist in monitoring your time in flight. RAIM Prediction predicts if
GPS coverage is available for your current location or at a specified waypoint at any
time and date. RAIM performs checks to ensure that the GTN unit has adequate
satellite geometry during your flight. The Trip Planning feature allows the pilot to
view desired track (DTK), distance (DIS), estimated time en route (ETE), en route
safe altitude (ESA) and estimated time of arrival (ETA) information for a direct-to,
point-to-point between two specified waypoints or for any programmed flight plan.
The Fuel Planning feature will display fuel conditions along the active direct-to or
flight plan when equipped with fuel flow (FF) and/or fuel on board (FOB) sensors.
The DALT/TAS/Winds feature performs calculations about Altitude, Airspeed, and
Winds. The Scheduled Messages function allows you to create scheduled messages
by Message, Type, and setting a Timer. The Checklists function provides a built-in
method of reviewing your aircraft checklist. The Clean Screen function will lock the
touchscreen so the display can be cleaned without activating any functions.
