• SafeTaxi

®

diagrams

• Scheduler

SafeTaxi diagrams provide detailed taxiway, runway, and ramp information at more than 700 airports in the

United States. By decreasing range on an airport that has a SafeTaxi diagram available, a close up view of the
airport layout can be seen.

The Scheduler feature can be used to enter and display short term or long term reminder messages such as

Switch fuel tanks, Change oil, or Altimeter-Transponder Check in the Messages Window on the PFD.

8.1 SAFETAXI

SafeTaxi is an enhanced feature that gives greater map detail when viewing airports at close range. The

maximum map ranges for enhanced detail are pilot configurable. When viewing at ranges close enough to
show the airport detail, the map reveals taxiways with identifying letters/numbers, airport Hot Spots, and airport
landmarks including ramps, buildings, control towers, and other prominent features. Resolution is greater at
lower map ranges. When the MFD display is within the SafeTaxi ranges, the airplane symbol on the airport
provides enhanced position awareness.

Designated Hot Spots are recognized at airports with many intersecting taxiways and runways, and/or complex

ramp areas. Airport Hot Spots are outlined to caution pilots of areas on an airport surface where positional
awareness confusion or runway incursions happen most often. Hot Spots are defined with a magenta circle or
outline around the region of possible confusion.

Any map page that displays the navigation view can also show the SafeTaxi airport layout within the maximum

configured range. The following is a list of pages where the SafeTaxi feature can be seen:

• Navigation Map Page

• Inset Map (PFD)

• Airport Information Page

• Intersection Information Page

• NDB Information Page

• VOR Information Page

• User Waypoint Information Page

• Trip Planning Page

• Nearest Pages

• Active and Stored Flight Plan Pages
