CHANGING THE SELECTED COURSE
The Selected Course is controlled using the
CRS
Knob (while in VOR, LOC, or OBS Mode). Pressing the
CWS
Button and hand-flying the aircraft does not change the Selected Course while in Navigation Mode.
The autopilot guides the aircraft back to the Selected Course (or GPS flight plan) when the
CWS
Button is
released.
