[. . . ] Modifying the flight path angle from the Active Flight Plan Page: 1) Select the FPA by selecting the VNV PROF Softkey followed by a clockwise turn of the large FMS Knob. It can also be selected by scrolling past the end of the active flight plan waypoint list. 2) Modify the value using the small FMS Knob. The FPA must be negative and cannot be less than the configured minimum value. 5-112 Garmin G1000 Pilot's Guide for the Diamond DA40/40F 190-00592-03 Rev. A GPS NAVIGATION NAVIGATING AN EXAMPLE FLIGHT PLAN The following discussion is an example of navigating a flight plan with the WAAS capable GPS system while the G1000 provides vertical guidance through descents. A lateral flight plan (LNAV) would be navigated in much the same way, but would not include vertical guidance when the final approach course is active. The example is a flight plan from KMKC to KCOS filed using the TIFTO2 departure, various Victor Airways, and the DBRY1 arrival with the transition at TBE. An LPV (WAAS) approach is selected for runway 35R. A missed approach is executed at the Missed Approach Point (MAP). A few enroute changes are demonstrated. 1) Prior to departure, the TIFTO2 departure, the airways, and the DBRY1 arrival at KCOS are loaded. See the Procedures section for loading departures and arrivals. Note the magenta Map Pointer in Figure 5-90 indicating the active departure leg. After takeoff, ATC assigns a heading of 240º. 2) Figure 5-90 shows the aircraft on the assigned heading of 240º. `TERM' (Terminal) is the current CDI flight phase displayed on the HSI indicating 1. 0 nm CDI scaling.

A heading of 290º is assigned to intercept V4. The aircraft turns to heading 290° as seen in Figure 5-91. Note the current CDI flight phase is now ENR (Enroute). When the aircraft reached 30 nautical miles from the departure point, the flight phase changed from TERM to ENR on the HSI and CDI scaling changed to 2. 0 nm. Figure 5-91 Assigned Heading of 290º 4) V4 is now entered into the flight plan. a) Press the FMS Knob to activate the cursor. b) Turn the large FMS Knob to highlight the point that proceeds V4 is entered as shown in Figure 5-92. 5-114 Garmin G1000 Pilot's Guide for the Diamond DA40/40F 190-00592-03 Rev. [. . . ] Refer to the AIM for a Terminal Mode S radar site map. TIS information is collected during a single radar sweep. Collected information is then sent through the Mode S uplink on the next radar sweep. Because of this, the surveillance information is approximately five seconds old. TIS ground station tracking software uses prediction algorithms to compensate for this delay. [. . . ]
