approach course. There are several ways to select “vec-

tors to ﬁnal” with the 500W-series unit. The ﬁrst two

options below normally require the least workload to

accomplish:

using the direct-to key, or as the last waypoint

in a ﬂight plan.

2. Press the PROC key and select the “VOR 22”

approach.

3. From the transitions window, select “VEC-

VOR (TOP) for navigation.

“Activate Vectors-To-Final?”.
