Operations
Clear Waypoints?
Pressing ENT when "Clear Waypoints?" is displayed removes all of
the leg waypoints from the flight plan, active or inactive. If this option
is used on the Active flight plan, all of the leg waypoints are removed.
This will remove the destination waypoint and all Nav data will be
flagged as invalid until a new destination is selected.
Est Gr Speed?
Estimated Ground Speed assists in calculating ETE? and ETA? for
each of the legs of the displayed flight plan when actual ground speed
is not available. The plane's actual ground speed is used by the Active
flight plan whenever traveling faster than 20 knots. On the other hand,
Inactive flight plans always use the Estimated Ground Speed value for
ETA and ETE leg estimations. This option is especially useful for
pre-flight planning. After pressing ENT, rotate the Small and Large
knobs until the desired Estimated Ground Speed is displayed, then
press ENT again to store it.
Est Fuel Flow?
Estimated Fuel Flow assists in calculating Fuel To? information for
each leg of the displayed flight plan. This option is useful for both
pre-flight and in-flight estimations of fuel requirements. The "?"
indicates an estimate. If the Fuel Flow/Air Data Sensor is installed, the
actual fuel flow is used by the Active flight plan whenever possible.
