FLIGHT PLANNER 5000 V2.0

Caution: Grid LSALT’S (MSA’s) are calculated by taking the maximum

(published) LSALT for any 1 degree by 1 degree square of latitude and longitude that the flight route traverses. This Grid LSALT for the route WILL NOT reflect any requirement such as considering obstacles within 10nm of track for example. If such obstacles fall outside the 1 degree by 1 degree square that the track is inside, they will NOT BE REFLECTED in the Grid LSALT calculation.

The Route Designator field on the Segment Detail screen will display the route designator for the segment. It can be entered manually, or pressing the Search for route button will attempt to locate it in the routes database.

4.4.5 Multi-Stage Plans

The flight plan can consist of up to 50 waypoints (including the departure and destination) and as many stages as are required.

A flight stage, being a unit consisting of a departure point and a landing point and possibly intermediate waypoints, is indicated within Flight

Planner 5000 by marking waypoints selected in the plan as landing points.

Activate the Segment Detail Screen for the required landing points (by pressing the Segment Details button on the Segment Screen) and select the

“landing point” box. The next stage in the plan will automatically use the landing point as its departure point. Stages can have any number of intermediate reporting and/or turning points as long as the limit of 50 waypoints for the plan is met.
