Overview Navigation Flight Planning ACTIVATING VECTORS-TO-FINAL After an approach has been activated, the 'Activate Vectors-to-Final' menu option is used when being vectored to the final approach course by Air Traffic Control (ATC). When Vectors-to-Final are activated, the aera creates an extension of the final course, beyond the final approach waypoint in the database (final approach fix [FAF]). A Vector to Final symbol appears beside the first approach waypoint in the Active Flight Plan. Activating/Cancelling Vectors-to-Final: 1) From the Main Menu, touch Active Flight Plan. 2) While navigating an Active Flight Plan (with an approach activated), touch the Menu Icon. 3) Touch the active approach. 4) Touch Activate Vectors-to-Final or Cancel Vectors-to-Final. Vectors-toFinal Symbol Final Course Extension Additional Features Hazard Avoidance Flight Planning Appendices Vectors-to-Final (Active Flight Plan) Vectors-to-Final (Map) The aera provides no guidance to the inbound course. The course deviation needle on the graphic HSI remains off-center until established on the final approach course. The map shows an extension of the final approach course using a bold magenta line. If Vectors-to-Final are not activated, the aera creates a straight-line course directly to the first waypoint in the approach. Loading the approach cancels the Direct-to and initiates a route to the FAF. 80 Garmin aera 660 Pilot's Guide 190-02017-20 Rev. A Index
