the waypoint pages in the active flight plan.
aj. Direct To Operation On The Active Flight
Plan. When DIRECT TO operation to a waypoint on
the active flight plan is selected, the system will
provide
navigation
to
the
waypoint
and
then
automatically resume navigation along the flight plan
when
the
DIRECT
TO
waypoint
is
reached.
Waypoints that exist prior to the DIRECT TO waypoint
in the active flight plan are bypassed. Navigation on
the active flight plan will not be resumed if the DIRECT
TO operation is to a waypoint that is not in the active
flight plan.
Any of the methods previously described for
initiating DIRECT TO operation may be used. The
following procedure is the easiest for this application.
1. Select the FPL 0 page on the left side.
2. Press the left CRSR button and then use
the left outer knob to position the cursor
over the desired waypoint. Refer to Figure
3-45.
3. Press the D button. The waypoint
page for the selected waypoint will be
displayed on the right side. Refer to
Figure 3-46.
4. Press the ENT button to approve the
waypoint page. The DIRECT TO waypoint
identifier in the active flight plan will now
be preceded by an arrow, Figure 3-47.
The symbol is not displayed since there
is no FROM waypoint.

An alternative method is to use the Super NAV 5
page to select the direct to waypoint. Pull out on the
right inner knob. With the inner knob out, it is possible
to scan through the waypoints of the active flight plan.
When the desired waypoint is highlighted, press the
D button and then the ENT button.
To cancel
DIRECT TO operation prior to
reaching the DIRECT TO waypoint in order to proceed
along the flight plan leg, press the D button, then
press the CLR button and then press the ENT button.
ak. Distance/Time Pages. The distance/time
pages are designed to be used with the active flight
plan.
(1) Distance/Time 1 Page. When the FPL 0
page is displayed on the left side and the D/T 1 page
is displayed on the right side, the distance and
estimated time en route are displayed for each of the
active flight plan waypoints. The distance displayed is
the cumulative distance from the aircraft's present
position to each waypoint along the flight plan route.
The ETE is displayed in hours and minutes. Refer to
Figure 3-48. If DIRECT TO operation is occurring to a
waypoint that is not in the active flight plan, the D/T 1
page is blank when the FPL 0 page is displayed on the
left.
