NAVIGATING TO A NEAREST WAYPOINT
The NRST pages can be used in conjunction with the
Direct-to function to quickly set a course to a nearby
facility. This feature can be a real time saver compared to
retrieving information from the database using the WPT
pages. More importantly, it instantly provides navigation
to the nearest airport in case of an in-flight emergency.
