This introductory section shows examples of the steps
required to select and activate a departure, arrival, or an
approach.
Selecting a departure, arrival, or an
approach:
1) Turn the large right knob to select the desired
option (‘Select Departure?’, ‘Select Arrival?’
or ‘Select Approach?’) from the Procedures
Page.
2) Press the ENT Key to display a list of available
procedures for the departure (when using SIDs)
or arrival (when using approaches or STARs)
airport.
3) Turn the small right knob to select the desired
procedure and press the ENT Key.
4) For approaches, a window appears (Figure
1-22) to select the desired initial approach
fix (IAF) or provide a ‘vectors’ option to select
just the final course segment of the approach.
Turn the small right knob to select the desired
option and press the ENT Key. The ‘vectors’
option extends the final inbound course beyond
the final approach fix, allowing the pilot to
intercept the final course segment beyond its
normal limits.
