There are three lists of
procedures in the system, the Procedures List, the
Library Lists, and the Trip
Pack List. The columns in each of these lists can be arranged in any sequence
or any width by using your mouse to drag-and-drop a column to a new position or
to alter its width. Any changes will be recorded and be refreshed the next time
your start ATP. Any list may be sorted
in ascending or descending sequence by clicking the column’s heading.
By default all lists are sorted
in ascending sequence the airport ID. If you want to sort a list in
another sequence simply click on the column header and the sequence will
alternate between ascending and descending sequence. So if you need to find an airport, like
SBA, simply click the Idents column and use the keyboard to type in SBA. The
system will scroll down to SBA. This applies to any column that is sorted like
cities or airport names. You can restart the search by hitting the Esc
key.
In addition to being sorted by any column the sequence of the individual items
in the Trip Pack List can be arranged by dragging and dropping each item
within the Trip Pack List.
To view any procedure in any of
the three lists simply double click on it or drag and drop to the
Procedure
Display Window. If the procedure does not exist in
your library it will be downloaded and add to your Local Database before
it is displayed. If for some reason there is an error in downloading a
procedure it will have an icon
and should be tried again.
To find any airport, on the Map, just drag and
drop it, or any of it's procedures, to the map and the airport will be positioned in the
center of the map and initially shown in blue.
