STR PT or ANCHR

[whizzif]

Just getting into this - can anyone tell me the difference between what is displayed on the ADI/HSI between STR PT and ANCHR point selection on the NMSP. What is specifically displayed on the flight instrumentation.

And TCN?

 

Thanks

Steer point is an active waypoint or markpoint. So HSI displays heading and range to active waypoint or markpoint.

 

Anachor point can be in example a bullseye.

 

When you press TCN button HSI showing a bearing to selected tacan localizer, if you switch to transmit and receive you should get range aswell.

 

Sorry for my english, im from Poland.
