3.2.3. Enroute
Albuquerque Center gives us a new altimeter setting of 30.11. We set 30.11 on the
standby altimeter and then on the PFD.
• Press the BARO Hot Key and rotate the Right Knob to set 30.11.
• Press the BARO Hot Key, or any knob, button/key to exit.
Soon, the CDI comes “alive” and attracts our attention as it changes from hollow (Figure
3-28) to solid green (Figure 3-29) and begins to move in towards the Course Pointer as
we intercept our course. We enable GPSS to complete the intercept and steer us along
the airways all the way to Reno, and engage the autopilot.
