TM 1-1520-240-103-3-12 e. FLY-TO DEST thumbwheel — Set to desired des-tination. The computer calculates a course between thedestination and the helicopter position at the time thedestination was selected.3-3-22. Flight Procedures.3-3-23. Update of Present Position from Stored Des-tination.a. FLY-TO DEST thumbwheel — Set to destination tobe overflown.b. DISPLAY selector — DIST/BRG-TIME.c. KYBD pushbutton — Press and release when heli-copter is over the destination. Display freezes upon re-lease of the pushbutton.NOTEIf a present position update is not desired, asindicated by an approximately small value ofdistance to go on overflying the destination,set the DISPLAY selector to some other posi-tion; this aborts the update mode.d. ENT key — Press if update is required.3-3-24. Update of Present Position from Land-mark.There are two methods for updating from landmark.Method 1 is used if the landmark comes up unexpectedlyand the operator needs time to determine the coordina-tes. Method 2 is used when the landmark update is antici-pated.a. Method 1.(1)DISPLAY selector — PP.(2)KYBD pushbutton — Press as landmark isoverflown. Present position display will freeze upon re-lease of pushbutton.(3)Compare landmark coordinates with thoseon display.NOTEIf present position update is not desired, asindicated by a small difference between thedisplay coordinates and the landmark coordi-nates, set the DISPLAY selector to some oth-er position; this aborts the update.(4)Landmark coordinates - Enter if differencewarrants an update.(5)ENT key — Press if update is required.b. Method 2.(1)DISPLAY selector — DEST/TGT.(2)DEST DISP thumbwheel — P. Present posi-tion coordinates should be displayed.(3)KYBD pushbutton — Press, observe thatdisplay freezes.NOTEIf present position update is not desired, asindicated by a small difference between thedisplayed coordinates and the landmarkcoordinates, set the DISPLAY selector tosome other position; this aborts the update.(4)Landmark coordinates — Manually enter viakeyboard.(5)ENT key — Press when overflying land-mark.3-3-25. FLY-TO-DEST Operation.a. When the FLY-TO-DEST thumbwheel is selectedto a new position, the helicopter’s present position at thetime is stored in the computer. A course is then computedfrom the helicopter’s present position, as stored, to thedestination selected. If the helicopter deviates from thiscourse, crosstrack error (XTK) is computed.b. Range and bearing to destination, current trackmade good, and track angel error (TKE) correction arecomputed from the helicopter’s present position to se-lected destination.3-3-26. Left-Right Steering Signals.Flying the shortest distance to the destination from pres-ent position:a. FLY-TO-DEST thumbwheel — Select desired des-tination.NOTEIf the desired destination is already selectedbut an updated course is needed, then theFLY-TO-DEST thumbwheel must be cycled toanother destination and back so the computerwill recalculate the new course.b. DISPLAY selector — XTK/TKE.c. Fly to keep the left display at L or R 000.0 and theright display to L or R 000.3-3-27. Target Store (TGT STR) Operation.Two methods may be used for target store operation.Method 1 is normally used when time is not available forpreplaning a target store operation. Method 2 is usedwhen time is available and it is desired to store a targetin a specific DEST DISP position.a. Method 1.(1)TGT STR pushbutton — Press when flyingover target.
