1.5 VERTICAL NAVIGATION
One of two altitude sources is used by the G1000 when
giving vertical navigation guidance. WAAS GPS altitude is
used when giving guidance for a WAAS approach. Baro
corrected altitude is used when vertical guidance is given
in all other situations.
The G1000 system can use altitude constraints
associated with lateral waypoints to give guidance for
vertical navigation. These altitudes are, depending on the
specific instance, entered by the pilot or retrieved from the
published altitudes in the navigation database.
The navigation database only contains altitudes
for procedures that call for “Cross at” altitudes. If the
procedure states “Expect to cross at,” then the altitude will
not be in the database. In this case the altitude may be
entered manually.
NOTE: All arrival procedure altitudes contained in
the navigation database are for turbojet aircraft only.
Alter or enter altitudes as desired to comply with the
ATC clearance.
When activating or loading an arrival or approach
procedure into an active flight plan, the VNV ‘ALT’ fields
will be populated with any altitudes that can be retrieved
from the navigation database.
