If the altitude selector is left at an altitude above the current airplane
altitude, the airplane will intercept the final approach course below the
extended VPTH or GP, such that the Pathway will be displayed above the
airplane until the aircraft intercepts the VPTH or GP. From the VPTH or GP
intercept point, the pathway will be shown inbound to the MAP along the
published lateral and vertical descent path.

ILS approach
When an ILS approach is programmed into the G1000 FMS, the initial
approach segments will be displayed by the Pathway in magenta at the
procedure segment altitudes if they are being flown by reference to a GPS
path. When the G1000 system switches to the localizer inbound to the final
approach fix, the Pathway will be displayed along the localizer inbound
path and glideslope in green.
If Vectors--To--Final is selected as the approach transition, the Pathway
will display the final approach course inbound to the Missed Approach
Point (MAP). The Pathway will be shown level at the altitude set in the
G1000 altitude selector, or the Final Approach Fix (FAF) crossing altitude
(whichever is higher), up to the point along the final approach course
where that altitude intercepts the extended GS. If the altitude selector
indicates an altitude below the airplane’s current altitude, the Pathway will
appear below the airplane altitude and the pilot must use normal descent
techniques to intercept the GS. If the altitude selector is left at an altitude
above the current airplane altitude, the airplane will intercept the final
approach course below the extended GS, such that the Pathway will be
displayed above the airplane until the aircraft intercepts the GS. From the
GS intercept point, the pathway will be shown inbound to the MAP along
the published localizer and glideslope.

VOR, LOC BC or other approach
Approach segments for a VOR, LOC BC, ADF or other approach that are
approved to be flown by reference to GPS will be displayed by the Pathway
in a magenta color. Approach segments that are defined by other than a
GPS or ILS, such as heading legs or VOR defined final approach course,
will not be displayed by the Pathway.
