[. . . ] Note that altitude values are now filled in for waypoints back to where the previous altitude value was entered for OPSHN. Figure 7-36 Vertical Guidance is Active to the FAF 14) As the aircraft approaches OPSHN, it may be desirable to adjust how fast, or steep, the upcoming descent will be. The default Flight Path Angle (FPA) is -3. 0 degrees and a required vertical speed is computed to maintain the -3. 0 FPA. To change the vertical flight path, perform the following steps. 190-00708-00 Rev. A Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the Socata TBM 850 7-15 SECTION 7 ­ NAVIGATION a) Select the VNV PROF Softkey to place the cursor in the target vertical speed field (VS TGT) as shown in Figure 7-37. b) At this point, the descent vertical speed can be selected, or the FPA can be selected. Turn the large FMS Knob to select the desired selection field, then turn the small FMS Knob to enter the desired value. Note the information now displayed in the `CURRENT VNV PROFILE' box. Also, note the offset waypoint and gray circle are now displayed on the map. The gray circle marks the Top of Descent (TOD). In this example, vertical guidance is provided at the TOD that results in a -3. 0 degree FPA descent to an altitude of 10, 000 feet upon reaching the offset waypoint. 15) As seen in Figure 7-38, the aircraft is approaching TOD. Note the target vertical speed required to reached the selected altitude. The Vertical Deviation Indicator (VDI) and the Required Vertical Speed Indicator (RVSI) are now displayed on the PFD as shown in Figure 7-39.

A SECTION 7 ­ NAVIGATION 16) Upon reaching TOD, a descent vertical speed is established which places the VSI pointer in line with the RVSI as shown in Figure 7-40. The upcoming turn and next heading is annunciated at the top left of the PFD as seen in Figure 7-42. Initiate the turn and maneuver the aircraft on a track through the turn radius to intercept the magenta line for the OPSHN to FSHER leg and center the CDI. Keep Vertical Deviation Pointer Centered Align Actual Vertical Speed with Required Vertical Speed Figure 7-40 VDI & RVSI Showing Correctly Established Descent 17) When the aircraft is one minute from the bottom of descent (BOD) an annunciation is displayed as shown in Figure 7-41. Upon reaching the offset waypoint for OPSHN, the aircraft will be at 10, 000 feet.

A Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the Socata TBM 850 7-17 SECTION 7 ­ NAVIGATION 19) After passing OPSHN, the next leg of the arrival turns magenta as shown in Figure 7-43. The magenta arrow in the flight plan list now indicates the OPSHN to FSHER leg of the arrival procedure is now active. Figure 7-43 Tracking the OPSHN to FSHER Leg 20) The flight continues through the arrival procedure to PYNON (see Figure 7-44). At a point 31 nautical miles from the destination airport, the phase of flight scaling for the CDI changes to Terminal Mode and is annunciated by displaying `TERM' on the HSI. There will be a descent to HABUK in the next leg. Annunciations for the upcoming turn and descent, as well as the VDI and RVSI, appear on the PFD as the flight progresses.

A SECTION 7 ­ NAVIGATION 21) Upon passing PYNON the approach procedure automatically becomes active. The approach may be activated at any point to proceed directly to the IAF. In this example, the aircraft has progressed through the final waypoint of the arrival and the flight plan has automatically sequenced to the IAF as the active leg, activating the approach procedure (see Figure 7-45).
