CHART ACCESS
A green chart extent box is separately drawn on the map and
represents the geographic boundaries of an instrument approach
plate associated with a FMS destination. When the ownship
symbol crosses the boundary of the chart extent box, this is a
good time to switch over to the Chart tab on the MAP page.

Hot Links to Charts in Flight Plan
Whenever a flight plan leg (blue airfield legs) has at
least one published approach associated with it, a
chart icon is presented on the right edge of the flight
plan leg. By using the right-hand knob on the IFD,
scroll through the flight plan elements until the chart
icon is highlighted in reverse video. If, at that time,
the knob is pushed in, the IFD will display either the
specific chart for that associated procedure or the
directory of possible procedures for that airfield.
