Michaelc136 Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 How to align from a known position? I want to be able to align by going over the known position and click the button to align
Eddie Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 The A-10Cs EGI, as its name would suggest, includes a GPS receiver which allows it to fully align without a manually entered known point unlike older non GPS equipped aircraft.
BlueRidgeDx Posted August 10, 2012 Posted August 10, 2012 However, if you really (really) want to perform a manual alignment, within two minutes of the start of an auto alignment, simply enter the desired latitude in the scratchpad and press LSK 3L. You'll know if you're in the two minute window if there are brackets, "[]", next to the latitude and longitude lines. As soon as you enter a latitude, the INIT POS SOURCE will change from AUTO(DTC) to (MAN)PILOT. Enter the longitude and press LSK 4L. Presto!
