Figure 5-78 Selecting an Airway
The Airway Loading Page provides the list of the airways that are selectable from the airway entry waypoint.
The list of airways is sorted such that low altitude airways are presented at the top of the list, followed by “all”
altitude airways, followed by high altitude airways. In this example, only low altitude airways are available
at ANX.
On the airway list, the cursor is placed initially over an airway identifier selected by the system as follows:
• The system compares the list of airways selectable at the airway entry waypoint with the airways connecting
with subsequent waypoints in the flight plan up to and including the first waypoint of the arrival or approach.
If common airways exist, the airway that connects to the last waypoint in the flight plan is nominated.
• Otherwise, the cursor is positioned over the first airway on the list.
In the example, V12 is auto-selected because COU is the last waypoint in the flight plan on an airway that
is selectable from ANX (V12). If we were loading the airway from FRANC we get the same result (V12-COU).
If we were loading the airway from COU, V44 would be nominated because V44 (which is selectable from
COU but not from ANX or FRANC) connects to the first waypoint in the arrival (ENL).
Select an exit waypoint from a list:
Use the
FMS
Knob and the
ENT
Key to select one of the exit waypoints from the list (TOY in this example).
The Airway Loading Window goes to this step immediately after the airway has been selected.
The Airway Loading Window provides a list of the available airway exit waypoints.
On the airway exit waypoint list, the cursor is placed initially over a waypoint nominated by the system.
Auto-selection of an exit waypoint is similar to the process of auto-selecting an airway (based on connecting
with a waypoint later in the flight plan) except that the choice of airway is now constrained.
