CIRCLING APPROACHES
Navigation and guidance to the landing runway during a circling approach procedure can be obtained, while
retaining the correct missed approach procedure waypoints, by using direct-to intercept navigation to the landing
runway threshold waypoint at the appropriate time.
With the primary GPS or GPS overlay instrument approach procedure loaded into the route and made active:
1. At a convenient time, prepare for the circling manoeuvre by entering the landing runway number in the
scratchpad.
NOTE: The prefix "RW" is not required, but a leading zero must be used (e.g. 14 or RW14, 06L or RW06L).
2. Display the ACT RTE x LEGS 1/X page by pressing [LEGS], and move the landing runway number identifier
to the TO WPT field by pressing LSK 1L.
The “INTC CRS" prompt is displayed at LSK 6R with dashes ("---") as the default inbound course. A route
discontinuity is inserted after the landing runway threshold waypoint.
3. Key in the landing runway heading as the intercept course, and select the direct-to intercept mode by
pressing <INTC CRS> (LSK 6R).
The inbound course is moved to the INTC CRS prompt field in LARGE font and is also copied to the to
waypoint course.
4. Verify the course of the intercept leg and distance to the to waypoint.
NOTE: Do not press [EXEC] until visibility conditions permit the circling manoeuvre to the landing runway.
Navigation and guidance displays and autopilot/flight director operation will continue to be referenced to
the current leg of the original instrument approach procedure until [EXEC] is pressed.
5. When visibility conditions permit, make the direct-to course intercept to the landing runway active by
pressing [EXEC].
Navigation and guidance to the landing runway threshold waypoint on the selected inbound course is
provided.
NOTE: If a missed approach is necessary during the circling manoeuvre, direct-to navigation (with or without an
intercept) to the missed approach holding fix, or to an intermediate missed approach waypoint, will
initiate the required navigation and guidance.
