MODIFYING THE ROUTE ON THE LEGS PAGE
On some occasions you want to make little modifications to the existing and active flightplan.
SKIPPING OR REMOVING A CERTAIN OR SOME WAYPOINTS OF AN EXISTING FLIGHTPLAN
Basically there are two ways to remove or skip one or more waypoints.
In case you just want to remove a single waypoint just press the DEL button in the lower right corner of the
FMS and then press the LSK left to the waypoint you intend to delete. This will create a DISCONTINUITY which
you need to deal with afterwards.
A different approach shall be explained with the following example.
Please have a look at the snippet oft he flightplan shown in the picture below. Let’s assume you want to
remove the waypoints between waypoints GESTO and GURLO so that you fly directly from GESTO to GURLO.
As a first step press LSK 5L next to GURLO waypoint – this copies GURLO into the scratchpad.

As a second step press LSK 3L to remove RIDNI and REBUN from the flightplan. The LEGS page should look like
this.

In case you are happy with the changes press the EXEC key to accept the changes.
Otherwise press LESK 6L, next to ‚CANCEL MOD‘ to cancel any changes to the flightplan.
