[. . . ] The autopilot follows the Heading Bug on the HSI and turns the aircraft to the desired heading. 4) As the aircraft climbs to the Selected Altitude, the flight director changes from Vertical Speed to Altitude Hold Mode. This active mode change is indicated by the green `ALT' annunciation flashing for ten seconds. 5) Upon reaching the Selected Altitude, the autopilot completes the capture process and levels the aircraft. From this point, the flight director continues to operate in Altitude Hold Mode. 3. HDG Mode 070 Selected Altitude of 7, 000 MSL 5. ALT Mode 4. M VS , ode ALT d rme eA Mod 1. 2.

The white annunciation `VOR' appears to the left of the active roll mode. 2) When the CDI shows less than one dot, the flight director changes from Heading Select to Navigation Mode, and the green annunciation `VOR' flashes. 3) The autopilot continues the turn until the aircraft is established on the Selected Course. During climb-out, the autopilot continues to fly the aircraft in Heading Select Mode. Note that at this point, the flight director is still in Heading Select Mode and the autopilot continues to fly 070°. V 10 7 070 R HDG Mode, VO Armed 2. 3.

This cancels VOR mode on the HSI and the flight director loses the VOR signal. As a result, the VOR annunciation flashes yellow. Flashes for ten seconds, then transitions to ROL. . If the NAV Key is not pressed within 10 seconds of the HSI mode change, the flight director will roll the wings level and enter Roll Hold Mode. 3) Once the flight plan leg is intercepted, the autopilot continues to track GPS guidance to the end of the flight plan. b) Press the NAV Key to activate GPS Navigation Mode to cause the autopilot to steer the aircraft toward the active flight plan leg. 33 30 0 3 VO 1.

The annunciation `FLC' appears next to the Airspeed Reference, which defaults to the current aircraft airspeed, 142 knots. Altitude Hold Mode is armed automatically. 2) Reduce power to allow descent in Flight Level Change Mode. 3) Upon capturing the Selected Altitude, the flight director changes from Flight Level Change to Altitude Hold Mode. The annunciation `ALT' flashes in green to indicate the altitude capture. After the capture is complete, the autopilot holds the aircraft level at the Selected Altitude. 1.

The autopilot and flight director determine when to begin the turn to intercept the final approach course. At the Decision Height, there are two options: push the AP DISC switch and land the aircraft, or use the Go Around button to execute a missed approach (refer to the following procedure). 3 27 Clovis (CZQ) 6 C GPS ourse 24 9 9 29 2 12 HILAN 2.
