5) An alert (‘NEXT DTK 119°’) appears, providing
guidance to the inbound course (Figure 6-55)
The actual desired track (DTK) depends on
ground speed and distance from PMD VOR.
Intercept and fly the inbound course.

6) When approaching PMD VOR (the missed
approach holding point), an alert message in
the lower right-hand corner (Figure 6-56) of
the screen recommends the holding pattern
entry procedure (‘HOLD PARALLEL’). When
flying the holding pattern, a timer appears on
the Default NAV Page. The timer automatically
resets on each outbound and inbound portion
of the holding pattern.

7) Note that the GNS 530 again displays ‘SUSP’
above the OBS Key. Automatic waypoint
sequencing is suspended at the missed
approach holding point. A waypoint alert
(‘APPRCHING WPT’) appears along the bottom
of the screen each time the aircraft approaches
PMD VOR in the holding pattern.
8) When leaving the holding pattern, press the
PROC Key to reactivate the approach, or select
a different approach, or press the Direct-to
Key to select another destination.
