Any point on the final approach course. One of the 480 "DIRECT" modes
is to set a course to/from an the thing you are going "DIRECT" to.
It's one of the options along with "enter a holding pattern at that
point". You're prompted for the course.


Is that a universal feature on IFR approach GPS?


It is a feature of the Garmin GNS 430/530/480. Don't know about Kings, am
pretty sure the Northstar M3 could do it. I don't think it is a requirement
of the TSOs, but I can't say for sure since I don't have a copy of the TSOs
with the referenced documents.

But any competent IFR pilot can track to any waypoint on any specified
course using bearing information, just like tracking a NDB bearing with an
ADF.
