12GTN 650: ADDING DEPARTURES, ARRIVALS, AND APPROACHES
Delete an approach from the flight plan
1. On the Active Flight Plan page, TOUCH the
name of the currently loaded approach.
2. TOUCH Remove APPR in Approach Options.
3. TOUCH OK to conrm the action.
If you are being vectored to join the nal approach, the best technique is to activate a leg between two
waypoints along the nal approach course. If vectors are setting you up to join the nal approach course just
outside the FAF, activate the leg from a waypoint that ends at the FAF. If you are being vectored to join the nal
approach course outside an IF that begins a leg to the FAF, activate the leg that ends at the IF.
TIP
Once a procedure is loaded for an airport, the
name of the procedure replaces that airport as a
waypoint in the flight plan. The fixes on that pro-
cedure appear below that name. To get waypoint
info on that airport from the Active Flight Plan page,
TOUCH APT Info to the right of the procedure name.
Load an instrument approach
1. On the Active Flight Plan page, TOUCH the name of the
destination airport.
2. TOUCH Load Procedure in Waypoint Options.
3. On the Procedures page, TOUCH Approach.
4. In the Select Approach window, TOUCH the name of the
approach that you want to load. If necessary, TOUCH the
Up and Down arrows to view the entire list of available

5. To select the waypoint where you will join the procedure,
TOUCH Transition. (e default is Vectors.)
6. In the Select Transition window, TOUCH the name of
the waypoint where you plan to join the procedure. If
your clearance does not yet include one of the charted
transitions or you anticipate joining the approach on a
leg between two xes, TOUCH the name of the charted
transition best aligned with your current route.
7. TOUCH Preview. Under Sequence, review
the list of waypoints that denes the ap-
proach. e map next to the waypoint list
shows a graphical depiction of the approach.
8. To add the approach to the active ight plan,
TOUCH Load Approach.
Once loaded, you can proceed direct-to any
waypoint in the approach (outside the nal ap-
proach x) or activate a leg between two waypoints
in the approach. Either choice activates the approach.
TIP
“Load and Activate” loads the approach and activates di-
rect-to the first approach waypoint in the flight plan all in one
step.
