Flight Planning

SELECTING AN APPROACH

When an approach is selected and activated, it replaces the destination airport with the sequence of waypoints for the selected approach. When an approach is loaded, the destination airport remains in the flight plan and the approach sequence of waypoints are appended to the flight plan. Keep in mind that the airport must have a published approach (GPS, RNAV, VOR, NDB, localizer, or ILS) and only the final course segment (final approach fix to missed approach point) of the published approach is available in the GPSMAP 695/696.

An approach can be selected from the Direct-to Window, Waypoint (WPT) Page, Active Flight Plan Page, and the Saved Flight Plan Page.
