GNS430W: Parallel offset course feature
On Sun, 9 Sep 2007 06:27:08 -0700, "Matt Barrow"
wrote: I guess all I'm essentially asking is, "Can't you just do airways on the VOR?" like they always did? Can't we use NDB and A-N ranges like they used to? Sure, you can use NAV1 and fly VOR and flip-flops to identify intersections, but when there should be a perfectly good way to do it with the automation available there's no reason to do it the hard way. It's a trivial amount of additional code for the 430/530 series - the G1000 is basically a headless 430. It's Garmin's "nobody does airways" attitude that's preventing it.
