Flying The Holding Pattern - Garmin G1000 Reference Manual

SECTION 5 – MFD

Flying the Holding Pattern

This example is based upon a missed approach from
KSOP (Moore County, NC). Now you've decided to divert
to KIGX (Chapel Hill, NC) instead. You select the RNAV
(GPS) RWY 9 approach into KIGX. The RNAV (GPS)
RWY 9 approach begins with a holding pattern at the IAF,
FIKKA.
Press the Direct-to key.
1.
2. Use the small and large FMS knobs to enter the
destination airport's identifier (KIGX).
Press the ENT key twice. This time you select
3.
the RNAV (GPS) RWY 9 approach into KIGX.
The approach begins with a holding pattern at
the IAF (FIKKA).
Press the PROC key and select the RNAV (GPS)
4.
RWY 9 approach.
5. From the transitions window, select FIKKA
as the IAF, then you will be asked "Hold at
FIKKA?" Select Yes or No and press the ENT
key. Choose "ACTIVATE?", this will load and
activate the approach.
6. Once you activate the approach, the Active
Flight Plan Page appears. You may review the
approach sequence by pressing the small FMS
knob and turning the large FMS knob to review
each segment of the approach.
7. Within 30 nm of the airport, the G1000
switches from enroute mode to terminal mode.
The CDI scale transitions from 5.0 to 1.0 nm,
full scale deflection.
8. Prior to crossing FIKKA, a message "HOLD
DIRECT" appears in the navigation status bar
on the PFD to suggest the proper holding pat-
tern entry.

9. Fly the holding pattern (the holding pattern
is displayed in magenta, indicating the active
leg).
10. As you cross the IAF, "SUSP" appears in the
HSI and directly above the SUSP softkey indi-
cating that automatic sequencing of approach
waypoints is suspended. As you make the turn
inbound, "SUSP" is cancelled and the G1000
returns to automatic sequencing.
11. As you approach FIKKA from within the holding
pattern, a waypoint message (NEXT DTK 090°)
appears.
12. At 2.0 nm from the FAF, the G1000 switches
from terminal mode to approach mode. CDI
scaling is tightened from 1.0 to 0.3 nm, full
scale deflection.
13. As you approach the FAF, a waypoint message
(NEXT DTK 090°) appears. Make any course
adjustments necessary for the final course
segment (FAF to MAP).
14. As you reach the FAF, the destination sequences
to the MAP (RW09map, the runway threshold).
Keeping the needle centered fly toward the
MAP, observing the altitude minimums dictated
by the approach plate.
NOTE: When viewing the Navigation Map Page,
the final course segment is displayed in magenta
(the active leg of the flight plan always appears
in magenta) and a dashed line extends the course
beyond the MAP. Do NOT follow this extended
course. Instead, follow the published missed
approach procedures.
As you approach the MAP, a waypoint message (AR-
RIVING AT WAYPOINT) appears.
