approve
the

for
the
reference waypoint and insert it into the
flight plan.

A
reference
waypoint
is
stored
as
a
supplemental waypoint and counts as one of the 250
possible
user-defined
waypoints.
Reference
waypoints that are part of a flight plan show up on the
listing of userdefined waypoints displayed on the
OTH 3 page. However, reference waypoints that are
not part of a flight plan are deleted from the list of user-
defined waypoints when the KLN 90B is turned off.

Waypoints.
Like
reference
waypoints, creating Center waypoints is a method of
adding waypoints to a flight plan. Center waypoints
are waypoints at locations where a flight plan
intersects the Center or FIR boundary. Placing
waypoints on the boundary results in the minimum
number of waypoints required for criteria of having one
waypoint in each Center's airspace. The Center
boundaries are stored in the database.
(1) Creating Center Waypoints.
1. Select the Center Waypoint 1 (CTR 1)
page on the right side. If a flight plan
page is not being displayed on the left
side, the CTR 1 page will display:
DISPLAY DESIRED - FPL ON - LEFT
PAGE.
2. Select the desired flight plan page on
the left side. It may be the active flight
plan or one of the other 25 numbered
flight plans.
3. Press the ENT button to compute the
Center waypoints, Figure 3-107. A
Center waypoint will be created at
each intersection of the flight plan with
a
center
boundary.
When
computation is complete, the CTR 1
page will display how many Center
waypoints
have
been
computed.
Refer to Figure 3-108.

4. To view the Center waypoints before
inserting them into the flight plan, turn
the RIGHT INNER knob to the CTR 2
page. Multiple Center 2 pages will be
annunciated as CTR+2.
The top line contains the identifier of the Center
waypoint. The KLN 90B automatically creates the
identifier by appending the first available twodigit
number to the identifier of the nearest VOR to the
waypoint. Therefore, if Plainview (PVW) is the nearest
VOR to the first Center waypoint location, the 00 is
appended to PVW to create PVW00. If PVW were
later used in the creation of another Center waypoint,
the second waypoint's identifier would be PVW01.
The second line of the CTR 2 page shows from
Center followed by the to Center. In this example,
PVW00 lies on the boundary between Ft. Worth (FW)
and Albuquerque (ABQ) Centers.
The third and fourth lines of the CTR 2 page
display the Center waypoint location in terms of the
identifier of the nearest VOR to the Center waypoint
and the distance and radial from this VOR to the
Cent er waypoint. Lines five and six display the Center
