EchoMap v3.0 

EchoMap has a growing database of airport approach routes, 

based on our NOS Approach Plate scans. The approach route data 

includes the path(s) of the approach, the missed approach and 

any holding patterns associated with the approach. The approach 

routes can overlay as vector data on the GPS moving map, 

allowing pilots to see the paths of the approaches in relation to 

their aircraft.  

When you set the Direct To target destination to an airport, you 

will be given a list of the available runways at the airport.  Next to 

the runway identifier are characters to indicate the type of 

approach overlays available in the database for that runway.  You 

can select a runway from the list, or you can skip the runway 

selection, by  pressing Enter at the empty runway id prompt.   If 

there are any approaches in the database for this runway, you will 

then be given a list to select the type of approach.  Once an 

approach is selected, it will put EchoMap into Approach Mode and 

the approach route will overlay on the GPS moving map.  

Approach Mode is indicated by a white bar with the name of the 

approach.   
The approach route will automatically target the closest Initial 

Approach FIX (IAF).  As you fly past the target point, the next 

point in the approach will automatically be targeted by the 

navigation system.  The current target waypoint is displayed in the
