APPENDIX B
Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Beechcraft 58/G58
Bearing
The compass direction from your present
position to a destination waypoint.
Calibrated Airpseed
Indicated airspeed corrected for installation
and instrument errors.
Course
The line between two points to be followed
by the aircraft.
Course to Steer
The recommended direction to steer in order
to reduce course error or stay on course.
Provides the most efficient heading to get
back to the desired course and proceed along
your flight plan.
Crosstrack Error
The distance the aircraft is off a desired
course in either direction, left or right.
Cumulative
The total of all legs in a flight plan.
Distance
The ‘great circle’ distance from your present
position to a destination waypoint.
Dillution of Precision
A measure of GPS satellite geometry quality
on a scale of one to ten (lower numbers
equal better geometry, where higher numbers
equal poorer geometry)
Desired Track
The desired course between the active
“from” and “to” waypoints.
Efficiency
A measure of fuel consumption, expressed in
distance per unit of fuel.
Endurance
Flight endurance, or total possible flight time
based on available fuel on board.
Enroute Safe Altitude
The recommended minimum altitude within
ten miles left or right of the desired course on
an active flight plan or direct-to.
Estimated Position Error
A measure of horizontal GPS position error
derrived by satellite geometry conditions and
other factors.
Estimated Time of Arrival
The estimated time at which the aircraft
should reach the destination waypoint, based
upon current speed and track.
Estimated Time Enroute
The estimeated time it takes to reach the
destination waypoint from the present posi-
tion, based upon current groundspeed.
Fuel Flow
The fuel flow rate, expressed in units of fuel
per hour.
Fuel On Board
The total amount of usable fuel on board the
aircraft.
Groundspeed
The velocity that the aircraft is travelling
relative to a ground position.
Heading
The direction an aircraft is pointed, based
upon indications from a magnetic compass or
a properly set directional gyro.
Indicated
Information provided by properly calibrated
and set instrumentation on the aircraft panel.
Leg
The portion of a flight plan between two
waypoints.
Left Over Fuel On Board
The amount of fuel remaining on board after
the completion of one or more legs of a flight
plan or direct-to.
Left Over Fuel Reserve
The amount of flight time remaining, based
on the amount of fuel on board after the
completion of one or more legs of a flight
plan or direct-to, and a known consumption
rate.
Minimum Safe Altitude
Uses Grid Minimum Off-Route Altitudes (Grid
MORAs) to determine a safe altitude within
ten miles of the aircraft present position.
Grid MORAs are one degree latitude by one
degree longitude in size. The Grid MORA
clears the highest elevation reference point in
the grid by 1000 feet for all areas of the grid.
Track
The direction of aircraft movement relative
to a ground position. Also referred to as
‘Ground Track’.
Track Angle Error
The angle difference between the desired
track and your current track.
Vertical Speed Required
The vertical speed necessary to descend/climb
from a current position and altitude to a
defined target position and altitude, based
upon current groundspeed.
