Create a parallel course offset relative to the current flight
plan. Setup controls provide offset distance and direction
setting (left of track or right of track).
Once activated, a new track line appears to the
left or right of the original course line at the
specified distance. The aircraft navigates to the
offset track with external CDI/HSI guidance now
driven from the parallel track.
Corresponding fix symbols on the flight plan
indicate when the active leg is on a parallel track.
Active route identifiers also appear on the
GPS NAV Status bar.
