you are finished. After the first approach select the flight plan again,

next airport identifier one character at a time.

On the GX50/GX60, the airport has to be the last element in the flight plan
in
order to load an approach for it. Evidently that's not true for the 430.



Same with the 430 if you are flying the flight plan. I am using the flight
plan only to store the identifiers ( which I can load before the takeoff). For
each approach I bring up the flight plan, curser to the airport of choice, and
do a "direct to". The flight plan remains stored to be used for the next
approach by again cursering to the airport of choice, etc.

AFAIK in order to do an approach with the GX50/60 you MUST be flying the flight
plan. If you do a DIRECT TO and want to do an approach at the end of the DIRECT
segment, the DIRECT TO must become the flight plan. You specifically can not do
an approach at an airport that's an intermediate waypoint in the active flight
plan. The destination airport for the approach has to be at the end of the
flight plan.

Do you still say "same with the 430"? I have no experience with the 430..
