SECTION 9 AUX PAGES 5) Turn the large right knob to highlight the departure time (DEP TIME) field. 6) Use the small and large right knobs to enter the departure time. Press the ENT Key when finished. Departure time may be entered in local or UTC time, depending upon unit settings, see Section 9.4, Setup 1 Page: Date/Time. 7) The flashing cursor moves to the ground speed (GS) field. Use the small and large right knobs to enter the ground speed. Press the ENT Key when finished. 8) With all variables entered, the following information is provided (see also Figure 9-16): • DTK - Desired track, or desired course • DIS - Distance • ETE - Estimated time enroute • ESA - Enroute safe altitude • ETA - Estimated time of arrival Flight Planning Page: Density Alt/TAS/Winds Calculating density altitude, true airspeed, and winds aloft: 1) Select 'Density Alt/TAS/Winds' from the Flight Planning Page (Figure 9-17), using the steps described at the beginning of this section.
