430MANF.qxd 5 7/24/00 4:43 PM Page 66 PROCEDURES PROCEDURES Approaches, Approach Examples Departures & Arrivals Section 5 Approaches, Departures & Arrivals The GNS 430 allows you to fly non-precision and precision approaches to airports with published instrument approach procedures. All available approaches are stored on your Jeppesen NavData® card, and are automatically updated when you replace the card with a new one. Subscription information for NavData cards is included in your GNS 430 package.
430MANF.qxd 7/24/00 4:43 PM Page 67 Not all approaches in the database are approved for GPS use. As you select an approach, a “GPS” designation to the right of the procedure name indicates the procedure can be flown using the GPS receiver. Some procedures will not have this designation, meaning the GPS receiver may be used for supplemental navigation guidance only.
430MANF.qxd 5 7/24/00 4:43 PM Page 68 PROCEDURES PROCEDURES Basic Approach Approach Examples Operations Select Destination “Select” and “Load” the approach “Activate” the approach Basic Approach Operations The GNS 430 provides non-precision approach guidance using its built-in GPS receiver. The GPS receiver can also be used as a supplemental aid for precision approaches, but the localizer and glideslope receivers MUST be used for primary approach course guidance.
430MANF.qxd 7/24/00 4:43 PM Page 69 Approaches with Procedure Turns The procedure turn portion of an approach is stored as one of the legs of the approach. For this reason, the GNS 430 requires no special operations from the pilot — other than flying the procedure turn itself — beyond what is required for any other type of approach.
430MANF.qxd 5 7/24/00 4:43 PM Page 70 PROCEDURES PROCEDURES Procedure Turn Approach Examples Approach Example Flying the Procedure Turn 1. Within 30 nautical miles of the destination airport, the GNS 430 will switch from enroute mode to terminal mode (as indicated in the lower left corner of the screen). The switch to terminal mode is accompanied by a gradual Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) scale transition from 5.0 to 1.0 nautical miles, full scale deflection. (See example, top left.) 2.

7/24/00 4:44 PM Page 181 Appendix D: Troubleshooting Q & A This section is designed to answer some of the common questions regarding the GNS 430’s capabilities and operation. If you have a problem operating the unit, read through this appendix and refer to the reference section noted. If you don’t find answers to your particular question here, use the index to find the appropriate section elsewhere in this manual.
430MANF.qxd 7/24/00 D APPENDIX 4:44 PM Page 182 TROUBLESHOOTING Why arent there any approaches available for my flight plan? Approaches are available for the final destination airport in a flight plan or as a direct-to (keep in mind that some VOR/VORTAC identifiers are similar to airport identifiers). If a destination airport does not have a GPS approach, the GNS 430 will indicate “NONE” for the available procedures—as listed on the airport approach page.
430MANF.qxd 7/24/00 4:44 PM Page 183 What does the O key do and when do I use it? The O key is used to select manual (OBS mode) or automatic sequencing of waypoints. Activating OBS mode (as indicated by an annunciation directly above the O key) holds your current ‘active to’ waypoint as your navigation reference and prevents the GPS from sequencing to the next waypoint.
430MANF.qxd 7/24/00 4:44 PM Page 184 When should I use the O key to return to auto sequencing, and what happens when I do? The most common application for using the O key is the missed approach. The GNS 430 will suspend automatic waypoint sequencing (indicated by a “SUSP” annunciation directly above the O key; see right) when you cross the missed approach point (MAP). This prevents the GNS 430 from automatically sequencing to the missed approach holding point (MAHP).
430MANF.qxd 7/24/00 4:44 PM Page 185 When does turn anticipation begin, and what bank angle is expected? APPENDIX The GNS 430 will smooth adjacent leg transitions based upon a nominal 15º bank angle (with the ability to roll up to 25º) and provide three pilot cues for turn anticipation: 1) A waypoint alert (“NEXT DTK ###°”) will flash in the lower right corner of the screen 10 seconds before the turn point.
430MANF.qxd 7/24/00 D APPENDIX 4:44 PM Page 186 TROUBLESHOOTING What is the correct missed approach procedure? How do I select the missed approach holding point? To comply with TSO specifications, the GNS 430 will not automatically sequence past the MAP. The active-to waypoint will sequence to the first waypoint in the missed approach procedure, whenever the O key is pressed AFTER crossing the MAP. All published missed approach procedures must be followed, as indicated on the approach plate.
