The GPS 90 is a powerful navigation tool that can guide you anywhere in
the world. To better understand its operation and capabilities, it may be help-
ful to review the basic terms and concepts briefly explained below.
Navigation is the process of traveling from one place to another and knowing
where you are in relation to your desired course.
Position is an exact, unique location based on a geographic coordinate system.
Most aviation navigation is based on the latitude/longitude coordinate system.
Meridians of longitude are a set of imaginary circles around the earth that pass
through the north and south poles. Longitude describes position in terms of how
many degrees it is east or west of the Prime Meridian (0Âş longitude).
Parallels of latitude are another set of imaginary circles that are perpendicular
to the earth’s polar axis. Latitude describes position in terms of how many
degrees it is north or south of the equator (0Âş latitude).
Awaypoint marks an exact position x so it can be recalled for future use. The
GPS 90 lets you mark waypoints electronically, without physical landmarks.
Bearing is a compass direction to a particular destination (waypoint) from your
present position.
Track is a compass direction representing your course over ground.

airspace surrounding KAUS. Whenever you are within 2
nm of an SUA, projected to enter an SUA or inside an
SUA, the GPS 90 will notify you with a message and
supply detailed information on each SUA you are being
alerted to. By looking closely at the map display, you’ll
notice that we will come very close to the KAUS SUA,
but not actually enter it. Once our flight takes us within
2 nm of the SUA, we’ll be alerted with a ‘Near SUA

The GPS 90’s nearest function will also provide you
with a list of the nine nearest airports, VORs, NDBs,
intersections and user waypoints to your present posi-
tion. The internal Jeppesen database used in the GPS 90
contains information about thousands of waypoints,
which are divided into specic categories for your con-
venience. For more on waypoint categories and the
internal database, please see page 17-27 after completing
the takeoff tour.
To view the nearest waypoints of a particular category

Now let’s return to the Map page to finish the tour. If
you’re not already on the Map page:
1. Press Prepeatedly until the Map page appears.
You may have noticed that as we make ou r way
towards the destination airport, the map scale has auto-
matically zoomed in to provide a closer look of the air-
p o rt. What you’re actu ally see ing is the GPS 90’s
AutoZoom feature. Whenever you select a GOTO destina-
tion, the Map Page will default to the 80 nm setting, and
gradually zoom down the map scale to the 1 nm setting.
The map scale will zoom to the next lowest setting
(i.e., from 80 nm to 40 nm) whenever the map can fit
both your present position and your destination on the
screen. If you manually zoom in the map scale before this
point, the AutoZoom feature will resume once it catches
up to the map scale you hav e selec ted (down to
2 nm). If the map is manually zoomed out beyond the
AutoZoom scale, the Autozoom will be cancelled, and the
GPS 90 will assume you want to stay at the scale you
have manually selected. For more information on the
AutoZoom feature, please see page 41.
By now, our plane should be approaching 3R9, the des-
tination airport. As the map zooms in to the 10 nm range,
you’ll be able to see the runway appear right on the
screen. Let’s move back to the Navigation page and finish
up our tour:
1. Press the Pkey to display the Navigation Page.
As we fly past the airport, notice that the GPS 90 con-
tinues to provide navigation to 3R9, with the re l a t i v e
bearing pointer and ETE elds indicating we are past our
destination. The GOTO destination may be cancelled by
activating another GOTO or cancelling the current GOTO
destination. To cancel the current GOTO:
1. Press the Gkey.
2. Press Lonce to clear the destination eld (pressing L
clears a selected eld)

The GPS 90 uses an internal JeppesenÂŽdatabase to
provide position and facility information for thousands of
airports, VORs, NDBs and intersections. Each facility in
the database is stored as a waypoint, with its own lati-
tude/longitude, identier (up to six letters and/or num-
bers) and other pertinent information. Up to 250 user
waypoints may also be created and stored in memory.
Waypoint information is available through the GPS 90’s
WPT key. Waypoints are divided into ve categories for
your convenience. Each category provides different types
of detailed information for a selected facility:
• A i r p o rt s — I d e n t i f i e r, city/state, country, facility
name, position (lat/lon), elevation, fuel serv i c e s ,

Information
The internal database
uses ICAO identiers
for all airport names.
All U. S. airports which
contain only letters use
the prex ‘K’. For
example, Los Angeles
International is KLAX
under the ICAO
standard.
Other airports, such as
Otten Memorial (3VS),
that contain numbers
in the identier, do not
require the ‘K’ prex.
Many countries outside
the U. S. use two letter
prexes. For more
information, contact

One of the many benefits of GPS navigation is the
ability to y directly to a waypoint or y a chain of way-
points without relying totally on ground based naviga-
tion aids. To take advantage of the convenience and effi-
ciency of point-to-point GPS navigation, the GPS 90
provides two methods of selecting a destination for your
ight: -GOTO and route navigation. The GOTO func
tion provides a fast way to set a course to a destination
f rom your present position, while the route function
allows you to create a chain of waypoints to fly in
sequence towards a selected destination.
Whether you’re flying a GOTO course or a ro u t e ,
there are a few basic concepts and terms that apply to all
point-to-point GPS navigation. Routes are broken down
and navigated in smaller segments called ‘legs’. The dia-
gram above shows a basic route consisting of ve way-
points and four legs. The waypoint you are going to in a
leg is called the waypoint (MAP), and the‘active to’
waypoint immediately behind you is called the ‘ a c t i v e
f ro m ’ waypoint (SGF). The line between the ‘active to’
and the ‘active from’ waypoint is called the ‘active leg’.
When you activate a route with the GPS 90, it will
automatically select the route leg closest to your position
as the active leg, and provide navigation guidance direct-
ly to the ‘active to’ waypoint of that leg. As you pass a
waypoint in your route, the unit will select the next way-
point as the ‘active to’ waypoint. 27
Routes
Overview
The GPS 90’s GOTO function lets you choose any
stored waypoint as a destination and quickly set a course
from your present position. Once a GOTO has been acti-
vated, the Navigation Page will provide you with steering
guidance to your destination.
To activate the GOTO function:
1. Press the Gkey.
2. The GOTO Page will appear with the waypoint eld ready to
select a destination. Enter your destination waypoint.
3. Press the Ekey to conrm the waypoint.
You can also quickly activate the GOTO function from
any other page by simply highlighting a waypoint, press-
ing the Gkey and conrming the GOTO page.
Another time-saving feature of the GPS 90 that you
may have noticed when entering waypoint names is the
Spell’N’Find feature. As you enter waypoint characters,
the screen will automatically display the rst numerical or
alphabetical match of the character you have entered.
To use the Spell’N Find feature:
1. Press the Lkey to clear the name eld.
2. Use the Uand Dkeys to scroll through waypoints.
3. If you have more than one waypoint that begins with the
same letter or number, use the Rkey to move to the next
character positions as needed. Only the rst character
match is listed for each character set.
4. Once you’ve found the desired waypoint, press E.
Once a GOTO is activated, the GPS 90 will pro v i d e
navigation guidance to the selected waypoint until the
GOTO is cancelled. To cancel a GOTO:
1. Press the Gkey.
2. Press the Lkey to clear the destination eld.
3. Press Eto complete the cancellation.

The route number eld is displayed at the top of the
page, with a 16 character comment below. If no user
comment is entered, the eld will display the rst and
last waypoint in the route. The waypoint list accepts up
to 30 waypoints for each route, with fields for desire d
track and distance between legs (if the leg distance
exceeds 999 nm, the eld will remain blank).
Below the waypoint list are the route page function
elds which let you copy, clear, invert or activate the dis-
played route. Routes 1-19 are used as storage ro u t e s ,
with route 0 always serving as the active route you are
navigating. If you want to save a route currently in route
0, be sure to copy it to another open route, as it will be
overwritten by the next route activation.

After a route has been entered in the GPS 90, it can be
activated in its dened sequence or inverted (in reverse
o rder). The process of activating or inverting a store d
route takes a storage route (routes 1-19) and copies it
into the active route (route 0) for navigation. The storage
route is now no longer needed and will be retained in its
original format under its existing route number.
This system allows you to have an active route that
you may edit during navigation and save as an entirely
new route from the original. You will have to copy the
active route to an unused storage route to save it, since
new route activation overwrites route 0.
To activate a route:
