Garmin is located south of Kansas City's Class B airspace, so it can cause some extra work if we want to fly north or northeast. One of the rarely used features of the GNS530/430 is the +Map waypoint. Using this +Map waypoint is similar to the rubber band feature that I covered on the portable units back in May. As before, you must have a flight plan loaded with two or more points. On the Navigation 2 page, use the cursor and move it to the area you want to fly to. Then  go direct to the cursor, which will show the magenta line going to the cursor on the map. Now, go to the Flight Plan page and move the cursor to the aviation waypoint that is below where you want to enter the +Map. Dial in the +Map waypoint into the flight plan and you’ve inserted the +Map into your current flight plan. This can be a lifesaver if you need to get around some airspace or weather.
