FPL
Description
The flight plan page displays the active flight plan and provides information about each leg.
This page can be opened from PDS1.
The flight plan cannot be modified from this page. Editing functions are available on the VTL FM page.
Further information about flight plan management is available in the navigation section.
Leg information
The page displays all flight plan legs. Up to four legs are visible at a time, and the list can be scrolled using the visualization knob.
The active leg, whose destination is the current primary goal, is displayed in green.
Each leg displays its target speed, as configured on the preparation page.
The displayed altitude is based on the cruise altitude entered on the preparation page, while also accounting for any altitude constraints associated with specific waypoints, such as those included in some departure procedures. Non-cruise waypoints without an altitude constraint do not display an altitude.
As a reminder, the aircraft does not provide vertical navigation guidance.
For each upcoming leg, the page displays the estimated fuel remaining, in kilograms, calculated using the current fuel flow and ground speed. The estimated time of arrival is also displayed.
At the bottom of the page, RESERVE indicates the estimated amount of fuel that would remain upon reaching the end of the flight plan.
REF TIME displays the current time used as the calculation reference.
