Garmin 296 - Adding Data
I have been using a Garmin 296 for some time and know my way round it quite well. Recently, I have been using the OBS line facility to draw the final approach path for NDB approaches. This enhances situational awareness and helps, particularly in cross winds. In addition to having the ADF needle and DME to follow, you can easily confirm you are on track with a quick glance at the 296.
I know there is a method of enhancing this still further. What I have in mind is drawing a DME arc onto the 296 screen. Someone showed me how to do this some years ago but I can't remember how it was done. Obviously I don't want the arc to remain on the screen all the time, only when I call it up. I have all the appropriate software on my laptop but can't find a drop down tab which helps.
Any ideas?
