HAZARD AVOIDANCE
TIS Symbol Description
Non-Threat Traffic
Proximity Advisory (PA)
Traffic Advisory (TA)
Traffic Advisory Off Scale
Table 6-11 TIS Symbol Descriptions
Proximity Advisories (PAs) are defined as traffic within the 5.0-nm range, within ±1200 feet of altitude
separation. They are not Traffic Advisories (TA), which alert the crew to intruding aircraft. When traffic
meets the advisory criteria for the TA, a solid yellow circle symbol is generated.
The altitude difference between your aircraft and other aircraft is displayed either above or below the traffic
symbol in hundreds of feet. If the other aircraft is above your aircraft, the altitude data displays above the
traffic symbol. If the other aircraft is below your aircraft, the altitude data displays below the traffic symbol.
Altitude trend is displayed as an up or down arrow (±500 fpm in either direction) to the right of the target
symbol. If the altitude trend is less than 500 fpm in either direction, no arrow displays. TIS also provides a
vector line showing the direction in which the traffic is moving, to the nearest 45°.
