Tab
Aircraft identifier–The aircraft identifier is used in the data log file and on the Flight Log page.
Map symbol–The aircraft symbol that is displayed on the Map page can be selected from different
vehicles that are stored internally to the unit. Additional vehicles may be downloaded from
www.garmin.com/vehicles
.
NOTE
To use a downloaded .srf aircraft symbol, create a ‘Vehicle’ directory on the SD card(s),
then copy the .srf file to the new ‘vehicle’ directory. For installations with multiple GDUs,
the .srf file must be present on each SD card inserted into each of the GDUs. If the file is
not present, the GDU will use the default black-and-white airplane symbol.
Flight Planning fields–The flight planning fields adjust the default values (fuel flow and cruise speed)
used in normal mode for flight planning calculations (ETE, Leg Fuel, etc.).
Takeoff Safe Altitude–Altitude threshold (AGL) for takeoff safe altitude alert.
