KLN 900 INSTRUMENT APPROACH MEMORY JOGGER
WARNING: Make sure that you have practiced instrument approaches with
the KLN 900 in VFR weather before attempting to fly approaches in IMC.
A. APPROACH SEQUENCE
1. Flight Plan
a. SELECT an approach from the APT 8 page.
b. CHANGE or DELETE approaches on the FPL 0 page.
2. Get established on the final approach course.
a. VERIFY APR ARM is annunciated within 30 nm of destination.
b. SELECT the Super NAV 5 page.
c. SELECT OBS mode for radar vectored intercepts, procedure turns
and holding patterns. Use OBS mode until inbound to the FAF.
d. SELECT LEG mode for NoPT routes including DME arcs.
LEG mode is mandatory
3. At or before 2 NM from the FAF inbound:
a. SELECT the FAF as the active waypoint.
b. SELECT LEG mode.
4. At 2 NM inbound to the FAF:
a. VERIFY APR ACTV annunciated.
5. At the FAF and APR ACTV not annunciated
a. DO NOT DESCEND.
b. EXECUTE MISSED APPROACH.
NOTE: There is no automatic leg sequencing at the MAP.
6. After the MAP:
a. FLY the published missed approach procedure.
b. PRESS
missed approach procedure (usually the missed approach holding
point). Change it if desired.
B.
TIPS
1. The database must be up-to-date.
2. Only one approach can be in the flight plan at a time.
3. APT 8 page is used for approach and IAF selections. (Use the Active
Waypoint pages when the destination airport is in the active flight plan.)
4. Data cannot be altered, added to or deleted from the approach
procedures contained in the database. (DME arc intercepts may be
relocated along the arc through the Super NAV 5 page or FPL 0 page.)
5. To change or delete a SID, STAR or approach, select the FPL 0 page,
place the cursor over the name of the SID, STAR or approach, press
D. Verify automatic selection of the first waypoint of the
from the FAF to the MAP.
:
E to change it, or F then E to delete it.
6. Some approach waypoints in the database may not appear on the
approach plates (in some cases this includes the FAF)!
7. Waypoint suffixes attached to some flight plan waypoints:
i - IAF, f - FAF, m - MAP, h - missed approach holding fix.
8. Use the Super NAV 5 page for flying approaches.
9. At 30 NM from the destination the KLN 900 will go into APR ARM if there
is an approach in the flight plan. Left/right D-bar scaling will change from
±5.0 NM to ±1.0 NM over the next 30 seconds.
