Offset from PPOS


Zhenche

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

I'm just wondering if there is an option to fly on offset from the present position. Only thing I've found so far was an offset from a certain point in the routing, and that's quite inconvenient over the atlantic with miles to go to the next coordinate.

 

Cheers.

There is.  I believe it's in the Lateral Revision page.  I'm not at my computer at the moment, but I know we've posted the procedure for this here in the forum.

Hey there,

My bad, after some testing around, I finally managed to get the offset form PPOS, though it was a little more tricky than anticipated.

So in order to start an offset from PPOS, one needs to "set" the T-P point by doing to DIRECT page and setting a direct to the next waypoint and immediately plan in the offset thereafter.
Until now, I've been starting the offset waaay to late, which resulted in the aircraft flying back to the T-P point I set like 15min ago before starting the offset.

 

Cheers.
