base which matches what you’ve
entered so far (in this case, Hall
Airport in Kaufman, Texas). Go
ahead and experiment a little bit.
4. Use the right outer knob to move
the cursor to the second
character and select an “O”
(figure 3-71).
5. Use the same process to select
an “R” and then a “D” (figure
3-72). You are now viewing the
APT 1 page for KORD.
The KLN 89(B) feature of filling in characters of the identifier can be a
time saver! For a second example, let’s select Bloomington VOR
whose identifier is BMI.
More selecting a waypoint by identifier:
1. Make sure you have turned the
cursor off from the previous
example. With the right knobs,
select the VOR 1 page
(figure 3-73).
2. Turn the cursor (B) on.
3. Change the first character to a
“B” (figure 3-74).
4. Move the cursor to the second
character and select “M”
(figure 3-75). Eureka! When you
entered the “M”, the KLN 89(B)
searched its data base for the first
VOR identifier beginning with the
letters “BM” and found BMI.
Many times you will only have to
enter two or three characters of
the waypoint identifier and the
KLN 89(B) will furnish the rest.
5. Turn off the cursor (B).
