EMG (Emergency) Mode
Emergency mode helps you locate nearby waypoints quickly. In
addition to being useful in an emergency, this mode provides a quick
method of locating nearby waypoints in case of a diversion by ATC.
The databases included in the search are Airport, VOR, NDB, INT
(Intersection), and User. Emergency Search finds the 20 nearest
waypoints in each database. The feature also locates the 20 nearest
SUAs (Special Use Airspaces).
The Search Around a Waypoint feature is included in EMG mode, and
is very useful in flight planning. It displays the nearest waypoints and
SUAs relative to any waypoint in any database.
Runway limits can be used to display only those waypoints with
adequate landing facilities. Surface parameters can be Hard,
Hard/Soft, or Hard/Soft/Water. Runway length can range from 0 to
9900 feet in 100 foot increments. Lighting can be set to "YES", or
"NO".
