Flight Plan Functions
Flight plans are specific routes between waypoints
you may store in the Apollo SL50/60’s memory.
This information is used to calculate useful flight
statistics. The Flight Plan function allows you to
have up to 10 stored flight plans. Each flight plan
may have up to 20 legs. The Active flight plan is
always used for the current flight. Inactive flight
plans may be activated in the Flight Plan function to
be copied into the Active flight plan. The
From-To-Next waypoint page in the Nav function is
a two-leg window of the Active Flight Plan
showing the current and next leg.
Flight Plan Leg pages show the leg number and
From
and
To
waypoint identifiers on the display,
along with the bearing and distance between the
From
and
To
waypoints. One asterisk (*) next to the
leg number means that the displayed leg is in the
Active flight plan. Two asterisks (**) mean that the
displayed leg shows the current
From
and
To
waypoints which are being used for navigation.
