I was wondering how to program this into the 430, and if it is even
possible. Say you are east of a VOR and ATC gives you a vector to intercept the 270 radial FROM the VOR and track away from the VOR on that radial and intercept an airway. The clearance went something like this: "Glasair 470XX, fly heading 220, intercept and fly the PDZ 270 to intercept V394." Since GPS navigation is TO-TO, how could I get the magenta line on the screen to be on the 270 radial from the VOR? I guess I could put in the PDZ VOR as a direct waypoint, then use the OBS button on the 430 and the OBS ring on the VOR head rotate the magenta line drawn from my present postion to the VOR to rotate and align to the 270 radial. I would have to set the OBS to 090. That would get the line on the screen, but I would be flying to the VOR not from it. How can I do this? BTW, there is no published intersect on V394 that I am intercepting in this clearance, so I cannot select that waypoint and fly 270 to it. Maybe ATC should stop giving these types of clearances and just say "fly heading 270 and intercept V394". |
