Overview GPS Navigation Flight Planning Hazard Avoidance Additional Features Flight Planning a) From the Main Menu, touch FPL List. b) Touch the Saved Flight Plan with an approach loaded. An option menu appears. c) Touch the 'Review Flight Plan' menu option. 2) Press the Menu Icon. 3) Touch the 'Remove Approach' menu option (only available if an approach is loaded). 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 795/796 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 the Active FPL Icon. 2) While navigating an Active Flight Plan (with an approach activated), touch the Menu Icon. 3) Touch the 'Activate Vectors-to-Final' or 'Cancel Vectors-to-Final' menu option. The aera 795/796 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 795/796 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. Appendices Index 190-01194-00 Rev. A Garmin aera 795/796 Pilot's Guide 77
