Operations
ETA?
The ETA? field shows the Estimated Time of Arrival at the To
waypoint of the currently displayed leg of the flight plan. ETA? uses
the Estimated Ground Speed value (described in Using Flight Plan
Summary Options) to figure the ETA.
In the Active flight plan, ETA? uses the latest available position as the
starting reference point. In inactive flight plans, the beginning of the
flight plan is used as the starting point reference position. If the
Estimated Ground Speed is 5 knots or less, the time is dashed (—:—).
LEG ETE
Leg ETE shows the Estimated Time En route to travel from the
displayed leg's From waypoint to the displayed leg's To waypoint. It
uses the actual ground speed for calculations, and is only available in
the Active flight plan. The time is dashed (—:—) if the actual ground
speed is 5 knots or less.
LEG ETE?
Leg ETE? shows the Estimated Time En route to travel from the
displayed leg's From waypoint to the displayed leg's To waypoint
using the Estimated Ground Speed value (described previously in
Using Flight Plan Summary Options). If the Estimated Ground Speed
is 5 knots or less, the time is dashed (—:—).
ETE
ETE shows the Estimated Time En route to the currently displayed To
waypoint of the Active flight plan. ETE is calculated from the latest
available position, and uses the actual ground speed of the aircraft. If
the actual ground speed is 5 knots or less, the time is dashed (—:—).
