Just picked up my aircraft with the GNS430W upgrade and was reading the
manual to see what new features are now included. In there I discovered the feature that allows the pilot to purposely fly a parallel offset course anywhere from 1 to 99 miles. The only tedious characteristic of this feature (IMO) is that the pilot must set this option every time a flight plan is activated, rather than having the option "stick" across flights. Thus, over time it seems to me a pilot may eventually opt to not set it. Anyone use this feature? I am curious about its popularity. -- Peter |
