• Waypoint suffixes in the flight plan:
i - IAF
f- FAF
m - MAP
h missed approach holding fix.
• The DME arc IAF (arc intercept
waypoint) will be a) on your present
position radial off the arc VOR when
you load the IAF into the flight plan,
or b) the beginning of the arc if
currently on a radial beyond the arc
limit. To adjust the arc intercept to be
compatible with a current radar
vector, bring up the arc IAF waypoint
in the NAV 4 page scanning field or
under the cursor on the FPL 0 page,
press CLR, then ENT. Fly the arc in
LEG. adjust the HSI or CDI course
pointer with reference to the desired
track value on the NAV 4 page (it will
flash to remind you). Left/right dbar
information is relative to the arc.
Displayed distance is not along the
arc but direct to the active waypoint.
(The ARC radial is also displayed in
the lower right corner of the NAV 4
page.)
• The DME arc IAF identifier may be
unfamiliar. Example: D098G where
098 stands for the 098° radial off the
referenced VOR, and G is the seventh
letter in the alphabet indicating a 7
DME arc.
