Connecting Gap in Route
BendixKing recommends that you input the arrival and approach
for the destination airfield and alternates into the FMS flight plan.
Selecting a published arrival and/or approach will automatically
load the procedure including all altitude constraints into the FMS.
Take advantage of the system to stay ahead of the airplane by
using the wind vector datablock selection (a constant calculation
of estimated wind direction and speed) for arrival planning, and
the electronic checklists and various map views.
ENROUTE DESCENTS
A green circular top of descent (TOD) marker and label is drawn
on the map when flying “on-path” along the FMS flight plan, giving
a clear visual cue when it is appropriate to begin the enroute
descent. It is based on the vertical constraint associated with a
down-path waypoint.
