See Flight Plan Sequencing on page 5 for more details. 1. In the Flight Plan function, turn the LARGE knob to display the Name Page. *Active* 259nm Dest: Wpt: PDT Active · 2. Press SEL. The “Hold?” option will flash. SEL *Active* 259nm Dest: Wpt: PDT Hold? 6-18 Flight Plan Functions 3. Press ENTER to place the active flight plan on hold. ENTER Waypoint sequencing will be inhibited on the current leg. Pressing OBS/HLD will also work. *Active* 259nm Dest: Wpt: PDT Holding Holding Patterns (GX50/60) A holding pattern is operationally the same as a procedure turn except that you usually intend to make repeated crossings of the waypoint on a specific inbound course. For a holding pattern, like for the procedure turn, the steps will always be to: 1. First, verify that sequencing is suspended, the OBS/HLD annunciator is lit, or suspend sequencing by pressing the OBS/HLD button. 2. Second, after crossing the waypoint, establish the desired inbound course to the waypoint by pressing DIRECT-TO twice or pressing ENTER for the “Set OBS Course” message. Select the inbound course with the SMALL and LARGE knobs, then press ENTER. 3. Enter the holding pattern by the most appropriate entry method. For example, Direct, Teardrop, or Parallel, just as you would enter that holding pattern at a VOR. Finally, when you are ready to exit the holding pattern, press OBS/HLD while still on the “TO” side of the waypoint to enable sequencing the next time you cross the waypoint. While you are in a holding pattern, the CDI/HSI cross-track deviation display and the TO/FROM flag will behave almost exactly the way they would if you were holding at a VOR. The TO/FROM flag will display “TO” prior to reaching the waypoint. The TO/FROM flag will display “FROM” after crossing the waypoint. TO and FROM is determined by position relative to a line drawn perpendicular to the 6-19 Flight Plan Functions selected inbound course and through the waypoint. The CDI will indicate “fly-left” if the aircraft is to the right of the desired track with reference to the selected inbound course. The CDI will indicate “fly-right” if the aircraft is to the left of the desired track with reference to the selected inbound course. As with traditional VOR navigation, these indications are always related to the aircraft position and not to the heading or direction of flight. 360 selected as theinbound course Perpendicular to 360 inbound course TO FROM FROM TO "TO" Waypoint "FROM" Waypoint When you are ready to depart the hold, you enable sequencing with the OBS/HLD button. If you are on the “TO” side of the waypoint, the flight plan will sequence the next time you cross the waypoint. If you are on the “FROM” side of the waypoint, the flight plan will sequence immediately. The following example shows holding at the Newburg VOR (UBG) 6-20 Flight Plan Functions with 020° inbound selected as the “OBS” course to UBG. "TO" Side "FROM" Side HIO (NEXT) If sequencing is enabled If sequencing is enabled on the "TO" side of a line on the"FROM"sideofa perpendicular to the line perpendicular to the UBG (TO) destination waypoint, the inbound course at the flightplan will sequence to active destination waypoint, the "NEXT" waypoint the flightplan will sequence immediatelytothe "NEXT" waypoint. 3S2 (FROM) when you cross the line. Continue The Continue option is available for the Active flight plan when the flight plan status is Holding (waypoint sequencing is not allowed). Pressing ENTER when this option is displayed restarts the Active flight plan and enables waypoint sequencing. 1. In the Flight Plan function, turn the LARGE knob to display the Name Page. *Active* 259nm Dest: Wpt: PDT Holding · 2. Press SEL. The “Continue?” option will flash. SEL *Active* 259nm Dest: Wpt: PDT Continue? 6-21 Flight Plan Functions 3. Press ENTER to continue the active flight plan. ENTER Waypoint sequencing will be enabled. *Active* 259nm Dest: Wpt: PDT Active · Load Approach (GX50/60 Only) This option is available for the Active flight plan when a datacard with approach information is inserted into the GX50/60. Press ENTER to show the available approaches for the destination airport. Press SEL while in the Nav or Map functions to go directly to this option. *Active* 56.1nm Dest Wpt: PDX Load Approach? Change Approach (GX50/60 Only) This option is available on the Flight Plan home page when an approach is already loaded. Press ENTER to select a new approach for the current destination airport. *Active* 56.1nm Dest Wpt: PDX Change Approach? Unload Approach (GX50/60 Only) This option is available on the Flight Plan home page when an approach is already loaded. Press ENTER to unload the approach from the active flight plan. The approach waypoints will be replaced by the destination waypoint. *Active* 56.1nm Dest Wpt: PDX Unload Approach? 6-22 Destination Waypoint Information Flight Plan Functions Enable Approach (GX50/60 Only) This option is available on the Flight Plan home page when an approach is alread...
