Viewing Fuel to Waypoint Data

The "FUEL TO WAYPOINT" screen displays dynamic travel information with a GPS unit connected. The range to waypoint will
show the estimated distance the engines will run at the current speed with the fuel available. If the distance to waypoint is less
than the range to waypoint, the range distance will be green. If the distance to waypoint is more than the range to waypoint, the
range distance will be red. For the most accurate data, maintain bearing to the waypoint destination.
