In-Flight Changes to the Flightplan
Under the best circumstances, one would fly from the beginning to the end of the
flightplan, serenely, without any nasty diversions or modifications. Because this
doesn't happen too often, the Argus gives you several ways to change the flight plan
while you're en route. You can, of course, modify the flight plan as shown earlier, but
this is seldom desired since today's diversion is unlikely to be repeated tomorrow.
Thus, we employ the concept of the "Active Flightplan."
Whenever a flightplan is activated, a separate, temporary copy is created that can be
modified without worrying about changing the flightplan from which it was derived.
This Active Flightplan can be modified by adding or deleting waypoints. In addition
to actually modifying the Active Flightplan, you can also skip waypoints and/or
temporarily warp your courseline to include your present position. These capabilities
are depicted in the next set of screens.
The first group shows how to "MODIFY ACTIVE FP" to include an intermediate
waypoint. In this sequence, you are flying our demo flightplan in reverse, starting on
the leg from SWF to HUO. You have decided to take a side jaunt to airport 4NY1,
in the left center of the screen. Before entering the menus, make 4NY1 your "selected
object" using SEL. This makes it the "default" selection. From FLIGHT
