AVIATION

Following your Flight Plan

When you have created and started your ﬂight plan (or route), the

GPSMAP 496 guides you to the destination using a variety of tools.

NOTE: After you perform an update to your Jeppesen Database,

verify that all of your ﬂight plans (routes) in your unit are still

current. If there is an obsolete Jeppesen aviation point in a saved

route, the route is locked and unusable. You need to create a new

route with current Jeppesen Database points.

Track Your Progress on the Map Page

On the Map Page, your current location is shown as an airplane (when

in Aviation Mode). You can see how the airplane moves across the

map; this is a graphic view of your ﬂight. Your route is marked with a

magenta line. The airplane should be on top of the magenta line as you

move. When you are on the magenta line, you are directly on course.

NOTE: In Aviation (and Marine) Mode, the Go To line and

navigation guidance are ﬁxed. The From point is the location

where the Go To was initiated. In Automotive Mode, the Go To

line on the map is constantly updated to your present location.

For complete information about the Map Page and the features of

the Map Page, see “Map Page,” beginning on page 29.

Terrain and Obstacle Changes

Press PAGE to open the Terrain Page, and watch the changes in the

terrain and the obstacles you are ﬂying over with the Terrain Page.

Terrain and obstacles that are less than 100 feet from your aircraft are

shown in red. For complete information, see page 37.

View the HSI on the Panel Page

You can use the Panel Page to view the HSI, your bearing to the course,

and other information such as speed, altitude, and ETA.

Use the compass in the center of the page to determine if you are on the

proper course. Also, you can help keep the aircraft within the VNAV

proﬁle when viewing the VNAV indicator.

For complete information about the Panel Page, see the section

“Panel Page,” beginning on page 40.

Alerts

As you travel, a variety of alerts appear on your current page, such as

Airspace, Terrain, Obstacle, and Descent Rate Alerts. When an Airspace

Alert pops up, press NRST to view the Airspace Information.

When a Terrain or Obstacle alert pops up, press PAGE

or NRST

to open the Terrain Page. From here you can view any terrain and

obstacles that might become a problem to you. Possible points-of-

impact are shown as Xs. Adjust your altitude to avoid the obstacles

and

terrain.
