You can create and store Latitude/Longitude (LL), Place/Bearing/Distance (PBD), Place-Bearing/Place-Bearing (PB) waypoints on the FMS as FMS Pilot Stored Waypoints via the following methods

  • MFD DATA/WAYPOINT Page
  • DIR TO Page (LL / PBD waypoints only)
  • ND DIR TO Aircraft Icon Method (LL waypoints only)

Entry Formats

LAT: where DD= Degrees (0 to 90), MM.M= Minutes (0 to 59.9) and X= Hemisphere (N or S)

  • XDD°MM.M, or
  • DD°MM.MX or
  • XDDMM.M 

LON: where DDD= Degrees (0 to 180), MM.M= Minutes (0 to 59.9) and Y= East/West reference (E or W)

  • YDDD°MM.M or
  • DDD°MM.MY or
  • YDDDMM.M

VIA MFD DATA/WAYPOINT PAGE
