If you got the following clearance:
"Cleared to the XXX airport via ABC, ABC 180 radial to intercept the DEF 030 radial, DEF, V-123, GHI, then direct."
How the heck would you program this in your G430 and fly it?
With dual G430s, the only way I've thought of is the following:
1. Punch in direct ABC in #1 GPS.
2. In #2 GPS, go to OBS mode and punch in 210 course "to" DEF.
3. Once at ABC, go to OBS mode in #1 and punch in 360 course "to" ABC. Follow that line until you intercept the DEF 030 radial according to #2 GPS.
4. Once you get to DEF, active a pre-stored flight plan in #1 GPS with routing beginning at DEF, V-123, GHI, XXX.
