d) Verify the displayed leg is the desired leg and
press the ENT Key. Note in Figure 7-21, the
magenta arrow in the flight plan window and
magenta line on the map indicating V4 is now the
active flight plan leg. Note also, the crosstrack
(XTK) distance on the HSI indicating 16.9 nm
to the intercept point. Note the phase of flight
remained in Terminal (TERM) mode up to this
point because a departure leg was active. Since
a leg after the departure is now active, the current
CDI flight phase is ENR (Enroute) and CDI scaling
has changed to 2.0 nm.

6) The aircraft continues on heading 290º. When the
crosstrack distance is less than 2.0 nm, the XTK
disappears from the HSI and the CDI is positioned
on the last dot indicating a 2.0 nm distance from
the centerline of the next course.
