Navigation Basics

Arc Assist The Arc Assist function will help you to navigate along an arc. In the GX50/60, Arc Assist will help you fly approaches with DME Arcs. Arc Assist can be used as a user-defined arc to avoid special use airspaces, or for conducting aerial searches using increasingly larger circles. The Arc Assist page shows the direction of the arc (left or right), the reference waypoint identifier, the desired track for the arc, and the distance to the reference waypoint.
