Hey Trevor, is HITS available yet? We saw it at Oshkosh on the 5600 display, and was told it was out.

it is on the newest software release
Software Version 8.06.04-MV-15
Does HITS work on 4500 or only on 5600????
It works on my 4500.
what is HITS?
Could not come to Oshkosh. Some details of the new features would be great!
Highway in the sky.
HITS is Highway In The Sky. Rather than following a flight director, you can follow boxes we draw on the screen of your navigation route. Many people find it more simplistic to fly than a flight director. To turn it on with the new Ver 8 software, press EFIS -> AD/FD -> then cycle the last button between FD/HITS OFF, FD/HITS ON, FD ON, HITS ON.
Trevor,
I noticed the HITS does not work with an ILS. For safety reasons people should turn the HITs off when doing an ILS approach. Will there be a HITs for the ILS?

Correct, HITS only works with the internal flight planning feature using a GPS. At this time it is not working for a ground-based NAVAID.
Does it work using 530 supplying the GPS signal, or strictly with the 4500 supplying the GPS. Does it work with GPS approaches??
