Flight Planning

3.2 FLIGHT PLAN CREATION

The active flight plan is listed on the Active Flight Plan Page. It is the flight plan to
which the GDU 37X is currently providing guidance, and is shown on the navigation
maps. Stored flight plans are listed on the Flight Plan List Page, and are available for
activation (becomes the active flight plan).
The Data Fields in the third column of the Active and Saved Flight Plan Pages can be
scrolled through by moving the FMS Joystick left or right. All other Data Fields can be
changed through the 'Change Data Fields' option of the Page Menu.
