# How to change the mission entry point in WingtraPilot

## This article explains how can you change the start point of your mission as well as the start point of each created flight area and/or corridor in your mission

### Area mapping

Once you have [created the mapping area in WingtraPilot](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/create-a-new-flight-plan?hsLang=en) you can change the start point of mapping by changing the direction of flight lines by 180°

- If the flight direction value is lower than 180°, add 180° to your value to change the start point of the mapping area![area2](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/hs-fs/hubfs/area2.jpg?width=688&name=area2.jpg)
- If the flight direction value is higher than 180°, subtract 180° from your value to change the start point of the mapping area![area1](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/hs-fs/hubfs/area1.jpg?width=688&name=area1.jpg)

This procedure can be done for each created mapping area separately which means that you can optimize your flight plan in order to maximize your efficiency.

### Corridor mapping

After you have [created the corridor in WingtraPilot](https://knowledge.wingtra.com/corridor-mapping?hsLang=en) you can choose the start point of mapping by toggling this option in WingtraPilot.

After toggling this option the start point and the end point will be reversed.
