NOTE:
When navigating to a waypoint very far away the DTK, CRS, and TRK values
displayed on the GDU 620 may differ from those displayed on the navigator, however the
CDI is correct and is the primary means of navigation. This is because the GDU 620 applies
magnetic variation corrections for the current aircraft location, but some navigators apply
magnetic variation correction for the waypoint location.
