The label of this icon may change when using data for regions outside the US.

several weather-related options. The WEATHER OPTIONS menu is discussed in detail in a later
section of this manual.
USER WAYPOINTS (In MAP CONTROLS)
Pressing the USER WAYPOINTS icon opens the USER WAYPOINTS page. That page presents a
list of user-created waypoints existing in SkyView, together with button controls on the bottom
of the page for creating, editing and deleting user waypoints and for importing and exporting
user waypoints to/from a USB stick. Managing user waypoints is discussed in detail in a later
section of this manual.
Navigation and Flight Planning
SkyView HDX’s Moving Map course information can be displayed on the SkyView
PFD’s HSI display when it is selected and navigating to an active waypoint. It is
always labeled SKYVIEW in the HSI and in the Flight Planning window.
Navigation Methods
SkyView supports two internal types of navigation. Direct-To navigation lets you quickly fly
“directly to” a waypoint by pushing the button whenever it is displayed. Additionally,
SkyView offers robust Flight Planning that allows navigation to a sequence of one or more
waypoints. Both of these methods are covered in the following sections.
Find an Airport or Navaid by Identifier
To find an airport or navaid, press INFO (Button 4) on the Main Menu bottom bar. A window
like the one seen in Figure 127 will be displayed.
