Waypoint 0, the first
waypoint,
is your Point of Departure, or
the
position you were at when you created the route. Waypoint 0 is
a
unique
waypoint,
in that the CDU internally constantly
changes the
position
of Waypoint 0 to your present position. However, the CDU
saves
and displays the original
coordinates
entered when you
crea ted
the
route.

0 is displayed in
