Over Fly

 

 

A waypoint in the flight plan may be selected to be over flown. In this example we have chosen the waypoint EGG

 

An important note. Once selected for Over Fly, the selection can not be un done. To remove the over fly portion, the waypoint must be deleted using the CLR button and then re-inserted

 

 

Select the Over Fly key on the MCDU. This will place a triangle in the scratchpad

 

 

 

Select the left LSK next to required waypoint

 

 

 

 

This now causes a change to the flight plan, such that the way point EGG will be fully over flown, before the turn commences for the next waypoint.
