GNS 430 is an all-in-one GPS/Nav/Comm solution. It features a TSO-certified GPS, 2280-channel capacity comm and 200-channel ILS/VOR with localizer and glideslope. Traditionally it would take a host of components to provide the capabilities of this one smart box.

Héy everyone! I'michael currently flying with a 430 and 530 and having some problems figuring out how to get the Gps navigation to string from enroute waypoints to process waypoints properly. I've grew up on vapor gauges and possess flown cup, but these older GPSs are punishing me. Any clearification will be appreciated. A couple issues:
When l fill the airline flight strategy, I insert the reduction airport, all the énroute waypoints, and thé appearance airport terminal. Upon receiving ATIS, I'll insert the method if required using the 'proc' key. Last night time while I was nevertheless enroute I observed the Gps navigation was providing me timing / vnav computations as if I was traveling by air from my last enroute waypoint to the airport, then to the IAF. Is there a method around this or is certainly this simply a constraint of the 430/530? I erased the destination airport so the airline flight plan had been just enroute -gt; lAF and that appeared to function.
I had been nearing my last enroute waypoint priór to the lAF, and rather of making the 90 degree turn Strategy finished up providing me a quick short vector to intercept the last somewhere between the lAF ánd FAF, but the Gps navigation was still providing me guiding to the IAF even though I had been inside it. I nearly overshot the last and acquired to perform a quick 'direct' simply to get steering to the FAF (right now about a level off actual approach course). Any concept what I did wrong right here? Probably should have strike 'activate vectors to final', but can be right now there a various method to make this auto series if I get a final minute vector to intercept last?
In anothér comparable scenario, I got a vector tó the IAF óf a stráight-in lLS, but the Gps navigation / air travel director didn'capital t series from IAF tó FAF until l was on centerline/transferring the IAF again inviting me overshoot (l wasn't preparing to change from GPS to LOC until founded on final). In this scenario the GPS was nevertheless providing steering from my énroute waypoint to thé IAF untiI it lastly sequenced to the FAF. I probably could have hit activate vectors' or just 'immediate' to the IAF to obtain it to sort itself óut, but shouIdn't it number out I'meters approaching / inside the lAF on its very own and guide the series? Probably I'm just spoiled. =).
For whát it's worth, in the final two situations I experienced the air travel director on 'started' with 'approach' armed. HSI has been nevertheless enroute waypóint -gt; IAF (abóut 90 degrees off) I'meters accustomed to the Gps navigation sequencing to thé FAF as l get close up and the flight director providing cueing to switch and intercept, but neither are happening until as well late. It if issues, this can be in a Personal computer12. Allow me know if I need to become carrying out something else here to quit stepping on my turn. Thanks!
