 IMPORT FLIGHT PLAN: Select to open the Flight Plan Import window. The import
window contains a list of all GPX format files that are present on a connected USB
memory stick. Press LOAD to import the currently selected GPX file into the Flight Plan
and activate it. This action will overwrite an existing flight plan. Press BACK to exit the
Flight Plan Import window and return to the FPL MENU.
 SHOW SKYVIEW FPL ON MAP or SHOW _EXTERNAL NAVIGATOR_ FPL on MAP: This
option is only available when a compatible external navigation device is installed. Select
this to choose which flight plan appears on SkyView’s moving map. The waypoints from
an external navigator cannot be edited within SkyView.
Inserting a Waypoint
Waypoints can be added from the FPL MENU by selecting INSERT WAYPOINT. This action causes
a window to appear that allows you to select a waypoint by identifier, name, or city. Use the
joystick to select a waypoint and press INSERT to initiate the insert mode (see below) or press
CANCEL to cancel the operation and exit the Insert Menu.
Figure 115 - Insert Waypoint Window
After INSERT is pressed from the Insert Waypoint Menu, or if ADD->FPL is pressed when a
waypoint is highlighted in the Nearest/Info/ window, or when MAP MENU > ADD POINT TO
FPL is used in map panning mode, the selected waypoint is highlighted within the Flight Plan.
Turn the knob or move the joystick up/down to choose the precise place in the Flight Plan that
you would like to insert the waypoint. Then, press INSERT to confirm your placement. The
waypoint will be added at the cursor location.
If you insert a waypoint via the ADD->FPL button, the default insert location will be the end of
the Flight Plan, but a different location can be selected in this case as well.
