3.4.6 FLIGHTPLAN

The EKP-III provides storage for 10 Flight Plans of 100 legs each. From the Moving Map

screen you can edit and create Flight Plans using the cursor. The Flight Plan edited or created

will be the one that is currently viewed by the software (see Chapter 6).

Creating a Flight Plan

To create a new Flight Plan from the Moving Map screen, be sure the current viewed

Flight Plan (see Chapter 6) is empty. Place the cursor at the desired position on the map, this

can be an aero object (APT, VOR, NDB, INT), User Waypoint or a spot on the map.

>‘ENTER’ + “ADD FP LEG” + ‘ENTER’

This will create the first Waypoint within your Flight Plan. Continue this way to add

the remaining Waypoints within your Flight Plan.

NOTE

If several aero objects are found under the cursor, the system will default the selection as follows: Airport, VOR,

NDB, INT. If no aero object is found, a temporary Waypoint is placed at the coordinates of the cursor and is

named “WPTxxx” (where xxx is a number).

Add Waypoint

To add a Waypoint (leg) to the viewed (current) Flight Plan place the cursor over the position.

>‘ENTER’ + “ADD FP LEG” + ‘ENTER’

This will place another leg onto the end of the current viewed Flight Plan.

Remove Waypoint (present only if there is a Waypoint under the cursor position):

>Place the cursor over existing Waypoint + ‘ENTER’ + “REMOVE WAYPOINT” + ‘ENTER’

If the Waypoint was within the Flight Plan, the revised leg will be drawn on the screen.
