TRIP 2: Trip Planning 2 Page (TRI 2)
Fig5.3
The trip planning 2 page displays the same type of information as the TRI 1 page, however on this
page you can plan a trip from your present position to anywhere in the world. Unlike on the TRI 1
page, you enter the distance and direction to a destination point instead of a waypoint. The KLN 90B
then calculates the information based on the entered data. If you set the GS or fuel flow on the TRI 1
page, they will be displayed when you enter this page and can be used in the calculations, or you can
enter different values directly. If you choose to enter the GS on this page yourself, you do not have
to enter any values on the TRI 0 page. There are 6 Lines of information.
Line 1: Display to show the planned trip goes from your present position to a set position.
The annunciation "S.POS" listed on the right side of the line stands for "set position", and
indicates this is the TRI 2 page.
Line 2: Displays the distance in nm (left side) and the direction in degrees magnetic north
(right side) to the entered destination point.
Line 3: Displays the GS in knots (left side) and the time enroute in an hh:mm format to the
entered point.
Line 4: Displays the user-entered fuel flow rate in gallons per hour.
Line 5: Displays the user-entered amount of fuel to be used as a reserve in gallons. The
amount of fuel in reserve is added to the amount required.
Line 6: Displays the amount of fuel required for the trip in gallons.
To use this trip planning page:
1. Display the TRI 2 page on the left screen. Click on the LEFT CURSOR BUTTON and a rectangle
will appear behind the first digit of the GS display on line 3.
