D Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Socata TBM 850/900231FLIGHT MANAGEMENT5.6 FLIGHT PLANNINGFlight planning on the G1000 consists of building a flight plan by entering waypoints one at a time, addingwaypoints along airways, and inserting departures, airways, arrivals, or approaches as needed. The G1000 allowsflight planning information to be entered from either the MFD or PFD. The flight plan is displayed on maps usingdifferent line widths, colors, and types, based on the type of leg and the segment of the flight plan currently beingflown (departure, enroute, arrival, approach, or missed approach).Flight Plan Leg Type SymbolActive non-heading LegActive heading LegNon-heading Leg in the current flight segmentHeading Leg not in the current flight segmentNon-heading Leg not in the active flight segmentTurn Anticipation ArcTable 5-7 Flight Plan Leg SymbolsUp to 99 flight plans with up to 99 waypoints each can be created and stored in memory. One flight plan can beactivated at a time and becomes the active flight plan. The active flight plan is erased when the system is turnedoff and overwritten when another flight plan is activated. When storing flight plans with an approach, departure,or arrival, the G1000 uses the waypoint information from the current database to define the waypoints. If thedatabase is changed or updated, the G1000 automatically updates the information if the procedure has not beenmodified. If an approach, departure, or arrival procedure is no longer available, the procedure is deleted from theaffected stored flight plan(s), and an alert is displayed (see Miscellaneous Messages in Appendix A) advising thatone or more stored flight plans need to be edited.Whenever an approach, departure, or arrival procedure is loaded into the active flight plan, a set of approach,departure, or arrival waypoints is inserted into the flight plan along with a header line describing the instrumentprocedure the pilot selected. The original enroute portion of the flight plan remains active (unless an instrumentprocedure is activated) when the procedure is loaded.When the database is updated, the airways need to be reloaded also. Each airway segment is reloaded fromthe database given the entry waypoint, the airway identifier and the exit waypoint. This reloads the sequence ofwaypoints between the entry and exit waypoints (the sequence may change when the database is updated). The
