PROCEDURES
Course From Fix

Course From Fix Flight Plan Legs
Certain approach, departure, and arrival procedures in the Jeppesen database con-
tain course from fix flight plan legs. The GPS 400 is able to load these legs into the
flight plan along with the rest of the procedure data, and to provide navigation along
these legs.
There are three different types of course from fix legs:
TYPE 1: Course from fix to distance, or Course from fix to DME distance
Course from fix to distance legs will appear in the flight plan like normal waypoints, but
the destination name will
always begin with a "D", fol-
lowed by a distance in tenths
of nautical miles from the
waypoint fix. This example
uses the VOR/DME RWY
25 approach into Palmdale,
California (KPMD) and
includes a teardrop course
reversal.
Palmdale (CA) AF Plant 42
