Easy Direct-To Navigation
For many flights, Direct-To provides the easiest and most
efficient way to navigate to your destination or to a given
waypoint. The IFD540 provides Direct-To operation that will
be familiar to anyone flying with previous generation GPS
navigators, except now you also have the option of touch
screen data entry.
Flight Planning Made Simple
In addition to basic Direct-To navigation, entering an IFR
flight plan is easier than ever with the IFD540. Extensive
testing and customer experience have proven that the IFD540
user interface reduces button pushes and knob twists required
with previous navigators by 50%-75% or more. Drop-down
menus are logically placed to provide touch-to-select data
entry of airways, exit waypoints, destinations, and
approach procedures.
A pop-up QWERTY-style keyboard automatically appears when
an alpha-numeric data field is highlighted, making data entry as
familiar to you as your computer or smart phone. With GeoFill,
the IFD540 will virtually always guess accurately your next
waypoint after only entering one or two letters.
Graphical Flight Plan Editing
With the IFD540’s graphical flight planning capability, you can
easily edit your flight plan with the touch of the screen.
The IFD540’s ‘rubber banding,’ feature allows you to stretch
any leg in the flight plan to make a deviation for weather or
to accommodate an amendment from ATC.
