Triangle assistant
In this option, you can enable or disable the "triangle assistant." This flight mode enables the prediction and
calculation of the best possible optimized route for performing a navigation to complete a valid FAI Triangle
flight. When the choice is set to "YES," the instrument switches to triangle navigation mode, and all task
navigation or waypoint destination navigation is cancelled in favour of the triangle assistant.
As your flight progresses, initially, two possible areas to complete an FAI triangle are displayed on the screen.
The entire process is automatic and does not require the pilot to establish the point of the 1st or 2nd turn.
The instrument will recognize when the pilot has made turns consistent with the FAI triangle specification and
will continuously display the potential turn areas or, ultimately, the "triangle closure" area.
If you are a pilot who frequently wishes to fly FAI triangles, we
recommend creating a page layout that includes a larger-sized map and
features the "Triangle Size" data field.
