Default How to back out FPL changes on GNX-480?

Interesting discussion. I can't say for sure that I've tried it, but what happens if you hit SUSP whil inbound
on the hold the first time around? It should stay active without sequencing after crossing the fix.

I agree with the comment about the usefulness of the various D- functions. I find Fly Leg and OBS
mode especially useful at times.

I didn't have the 480 at the time of my IR checkride. I almost blew the ride on an impromptu DME arc
entry to an ILS (diabolical DE - no arc transition on this approach, so this was strictly extemporaneous).
Situational awareness on Arcs and Holds is a piece of cake with that map display.

Mike
