Options page. When enabled, the FMS will
automatically tune the next down-path VOR in the
active flight plan into the primary nav frequency.

AeroNavs in a dual installation to allow depiction of a

Also when navigating using airways, it may be
desirable to turn off this feature in order to check
navigation using off-airway VORs.

from your flight plan. From the “FPL” tab of the FMS page, press
the “Offset Route” LSK and use the right-hand knob on the
AeroNav to dial in the desired offset. Use the outer ring for coarse
control (1 nm increments) and the inner ring for fine control (0.1
nm increments). Rotate the knob left for left offsets and right for
right offsets. Once the intended offset has been entered, press
the “Confirm Right/Left x.x NM” LSK. At that point, the original
LSK will indicate “Offset Route Right/Left X.X NM”. To delete a
