Upon completion of entering a new VS TGT the G1000:
• Periodically computes a new FPA using the selected VS TGT and current ground speed until the TOD
is reached
• Uses the newly computed FPA for the active waypoint with a vertical component
• Resumes periodic updates of the VS TGT using the new FPA and current ground speed. VNV profile
changes apply to the active waypoint only.
The active waypoint with a vertical component and its FPA is shown in the current VNV profile
information box. The pilot can change the FPA.
Modifying the flight path angle:
1) Select the FPA by pressing the VNV PROF Softkey followed by a clockwise turn of the large FMS Knob. It can
also be selected by scrolling past the end of the active flight plan waypoint list.
2) Modify the value using the small FMS Knob. The FPA must be negative and cannot be less than the configured
minimum value.
