Lee,
It's simple, really. You just put the
destination into the GPS and fly the bearing shown on the GPS.
Or, you could go to the AOPA flight planning software on their website,
if you are a member.
Seriously, I think I could figure this out if I were
awake and alert. However, I hope you don't mind if I post your question
on the list and solicit help from others.
Best wishes,
Ed
