5.1 FLIGHT PLAN CATALOG PAGE
The Flight Plan Catalog Page allows the pilot to create,
edit, activate, delete, and copy ight plans. Flight plans
numbered from 1 through 19 are used to save ight plans
for future use. ‘Flight plan 00’ is reserved exclusively
for the ight plan currently in use for navigation. When
a ight plan is activated, a copy of the ight plan is
automatically transferred to ‘ight plan 00’, overwriting
any previously active ight plan.
To create a new flight plan:
1) Press the FPL Key and turn the small right
knob to display the Flight Plan Catalog Page
(Figure 5-2).

Catalog Page Menu (Figure 5-3).
