5.5 DIRECT-TO-NAVIGATION<br />

The Direct-to method of navigation, initiated by pressing the Direct-to Key on either the MFD or PFD, is<br />

quicker to use than a flight plan when the desire is to navigate to a single point such as a nearby airport.<br />

Once a direct-to is activated, the system establishes a point-to-point course line from the present position to the<br />

selected direct-to destination. Course guidance is provided until the direct-to is replaced with a new direct-to or<br />

flight plan, or cancelled.<br />

A vertical navigation (VNV) direct-to creates a descent path (and provides guidance to stay on the path) from<br />

the current altitude to a selected altitude at the direct-to waypoint. Vertical navigation is based on barometric<br />

altitudes, not on GPS altitude, and is used for cruise and descent phases of flight.<br />

The Direct-to Window allows selection and activation of direct-to navigation. The Direct-to Window displays<br />

selected direct-to waypoint data on the PFD and the MFD.<br />
