Direct-to Navigation
Selection of a waypoint for Direct-to navigation may be
done in several ways:
• By specifying the identifier, waypoint location, or
facility name
• From a list of waypoints in the active flight plan
• From a list of the 25 nearest airports
NOTE: When entering an all-letter/alphabetical
airport identifier (only in the USA), the pilot must
precede it with the letter “K” (e.g., KMCI). If the
airport identifier is alpha-numeric, simply enter
the three-digit identifier (e.g., 51K). The full ICAO
identifier must be entered for all waypoints.
