Step-by-step: Divert to the nearest airport

  1. On the MFD, turn the large FMS knob to the NRST (Nearest) page.

    The Nearest page ranks airports by distance from your position — vital in an emergency.

  2. Direct-To the nearest airport, KPAO.

    Direct-To gives you an immediate course to the diversion field.
