The flight plan route starts on page 2. It
can be entered in ATC clearance language;
that is, multiple subsequent legs lying on
the same airway or procedure may be
grouped to a single VIA-TO expression.
—The waypoints under TO cannot be
deleted or overwritten on these pages; this
is allowed only on the LEGS pages.
1L 2L 3L 4L 5L VIA
In the first line, shows the airway or
procedure starting at the current aircraft
position, leading to the TO fix displayed in
the same line. In the following lines, each
VIA segment starts at the TO fix of the
respective previous line.—Displays dashes at
the route end or in a route discontinuity.—
Procedures cannot be entered here; they are
automatically entered when the crew selects
procedures on the DEPARTURES and
ARRIVALS pages.—A transition procedure
is indicated by its transition fix and by the
procedure it is connected with, separated by
a dot, for example:
via CAX.NDB28 – to CN28
CAX is the fix of the transition, and the
transition is connected with the NDB28
approach which starts at CN28.

1R 2R 3R 4R 5R TO
Shows the fix that exits the airway or
procedure segment entered in the same
line under VIA, and that also connects to
the next VIA entry. Displays dashes at the
end of the route; displays boxes in a route
discontinuity, or after a VIA entry whose
associated TO fix is not entered yet. Entries
are allowed only where dashes or boxes are
displayed.

Any waypoint, station, or airport identifier
in the database or route; or coordinates,
for example:
For N27° 59.7’ E086° 55.8’
enter N2759.7E08655.8
For N27° 00.0’ E086° 00.0’
enter N27E086
One destination runway, for example:
For runway 07 enter RW07 or 07.
Place-bearing/distance, for example:
For 5 nm from JFK on 090° bearing
enter JFK090 / 5
Place-bearing/place-bearing, for example:
For the intersection of JFK bearing 270°
with LGA bearing 180°
enter JFK270 / LGA180
