Ryan should at least watch some videos or study the release history to understand what features are included with WT G1000 NXI.

And.. the Nearest page on the MFD is active and you can select a DTO destination 🙂

We are getting there!

I just have a question bout this, is it possible to remove a DTO once it's entered ?

Just wondering if I'm doing something wrong in finding it or maybe it's not implemented yet.

I think I read somewhere you cannot remove a DTO, but you can issue another DTO.

What happens if you go to the FPL page, and Activate a Leg?  That should replace the DTO.

Interesting, does the above work for you?

If so I'm surprised because I checked with Matt from WT and he says your only option is to issue another DTO. I'll try it and see what happens once the DTO is activated.

EDIT:  Bert, yes, that works, and Matt has confirmed you can also do that. Thanks for the info!

I have used it but it was back in the days of the 180° approach bug.  Today I sometimes use the D→ capability to navigate to the first waypoint in my flight plan rather than screwing with the heading bug to pick up what is sometimes a cumbersome intercept.  Like today.  My takeoff was on 6R and my first waypoint was about 9 NM to the southwest.  So I turned about 90° to the left, flew about 30 seconds, then use a direct to to pick up that first waypoint. 

I am not certain at this point what takes place if you activate say the third or fourth leg of a flight plan when you are for instance still on the first leg.

Thanks for that, also I tried turning off the electronics and reboot of the PDF/MFD and it didn't clear the DTO

A comprehensive look at the G1000 NXI and the Vnav features in the sim.

There is no update beyond 10.1 --> someone bumped a moldy thread.
