Multiple Choice

On the Legs page, how are 'At or below' altitude restrictions entered?

Altitude restrictions on the Legs page are indicated with a suffix that tells the system what kind of constraint applies to the altitude. The suffix B specifically signals an “at or below” restriction. So you enter the altitude value followed by B, and the system will constrain you to be at or below that altitude at that leg. For example, entering 8000B means you must be at 8000 feet or lower when you reach that point. Suffix A would denote an “at or above” constraint, and leaving off a suffix means no altitude restriction is applied.
