ROUTE NAV Copying Routes CPA Function SECTION 5 The CPA function calculates the closest distance that a route will pass to a reference waypoint, and helps when creating new route waypoints referenced to a NAVAID. To calculate the closest point of approach (CPA) from the route catalog page: 1. Use K to display the route you would like to use for the CPA function. The route must consist of at least two waypoints, and the reference facility must fall between the waypoints of a route leg. Press C twice and rotate K to select `cpa?'. Use K and O to enter the identifier of the reference waypoint. The bearing and distance of the closest point on the route will be displayed. Press E to add the cpa waypoint to the route, or \ to finish. If you do add the cpa waypoint to the route, it will be named based on the reference waypoint plus a number (09) added to the end (e. g. , KMCI3 for KMCI). If the waypoint does not fall between waypoints on the route, the reference waypoint does not exist or a unique name cannot be assigned to the CPA waypoint, you'll be informed with the `Invald CPA wpt ____' message. Closest point of approach to `TXK'. Calculating closest point of approach. 69 SECTION 5 ROUTE NAV Search & Rescue Operations The GNC 300XL's search-and-rescue function provides navigation guidance for search-and-rescue operations, navigating in a ladder pattern to maximize coverage and efficiency. This is done in reference to two waypoints called `anchor waypoints'. The first leg will be a specified distance from the line connecting the anchor waypoints. This is called the `offset distance'. The `increment distance' is the distance between each subsequent leg. The ladder can be created on either side of the anchor waypoints. To perform a search-and-rescue operation: 1. Press R and use O to display the route catalog page. Press C twice and use K to display `search?'. Use K and O to enter the leg increment value and R or L. Rotate O to highlight the initial offset, and use K and O to enter the initial offset value, and R or L. The map page will show the active leg of the search and rescue pattern as a solid line with the anchor waypoints joined together by a dashed line. 7. Press E three times to accept the operation values and begin navigation. Performing a search-and-rescue operation. After activating a search-and-rescue, you will be informed with an `Offset nav in effect' message each time you traverse the route offset from the anchor waypoints. The CDI page will guide you along each leg of the ladder pattern. Note that bearing and distance information are referenced to the anchor waypoints. [. . . ] All published missed approach procedures must be flown before activating navigation to the holding point. To begin the missed approach procedure prior to the MAP, the GPS APR switch must be released from the `ARM' position to disarm the approach and begin transition of the CDI to the 1. 0 nm scale. To activate navigation to the first missed approach waypoint after crossing the MAP, press D, then E. The GNC 300XL will provide direct navigation to the holding point. [. . . ]
