Loading an Approach

Loading an instrument procedure into the flight plan, selecting approach minimums, and changing the approach service level is covered in the following procedure. If minimums must be modified after already loading the approach, the pilot may edit the minimums by touching the BARO MIN Indicator Button on the altimeter. Adjusting the minimums may also be accessed by touching the Runway Button in the Approach Header Row on the 'Flight Plan' Application Page to access the Procedure Loading Function, then touch the Minimums Button. A separate procedure for loading a visual approach into the flight plan is also provided.

NOTICE

If there is no arrival procedure in the Active Flight Plan, loading an approach to a flight plan in which the destination airport has already been entered, will result in the previously entered destination airport becoming a fly-over waypoint before the newly loaded approach.

NOTICE

If the desired IAF is also an entry waypoint to a hold in lieu of procedure turn, and the option to load the course reversal is accepted, the altitude constraint for this IAF may not be loaded.
