GPS Guidance on an IFR Approach Procedure

For precision approaches and some non-precision approaches, a reminder window appears indicating that GPS guidance on such approaches is strictly for monitoring only — use the VLOC receivers and external CDI (or HSI) for primary navigation. To confirm this reminder, highlight ‘Yes?’ and press the ENT Key.


Garmin 430w

Activating Approach Procedure

A selected approach may be activated or loaded. Activating the approach overrides the ‘ENROUTE’ portion of the active flight plan, proceeding directly to the ‘APPROACH’ portion (for a full approach, directly to the initial approach fix). Activating the approach also initiates automatic CDI scaling transition as the approach progresses. In many cases, it may be easiest to ‘Load’ the full approach while still some distance away, ENROUTE to the destination airport.
