They were shocked but then couldn't figure out what they did to make that happen.
I'm not sure what you're asking, exactly. The fix page works just like the 88, in that you could insert the FAF and enter a reciprocal course for increased s.a., but I don't think that's your question.
You can also enter a PBD into the fix page and extend a line in any direction (if you have a lot of time on your hands).
