SkyView Pilot’s User Guide - Revision S

When a Traffic Advisory target is present, a yellow Traffic Alert Message appears on the PFD
Page near the top of the IAS tape. Note that Traffic Advisory targets behind your aircraft will
generate alerts. They can be seen on the Map Page, but will not be visible on the Synthetic
Vision display as Synthetic Vision only shows the view in front of the aircraft.

Extreme Pitch Warning Indicators

The SkyView PFD shows large red arrows as pitch warning indicators in extreme attitudes (i.e.,
45 degrees or greater pitch up or down). These indicators point to the horizon and indicate
which way to maneuver to attain a level attitude. Indicators are accompanied with a small sliver
of sky or ground bordered with a white dashed horizon line, depending on the current attitude.
The pitch warning indicators can be enabled or disabled through the setup menus. See the
SkyView System Installation Guide for information about this setting. Figure 50 illustrates the
pitch up warning arrows with the slivers of ground.

Six-Pack Presentation

In firmware version 10.0 or later, SkyView includes the traditional six-pack analog presentation
of flight instruments as well as the EFIS tape-based display. SkyView’s “six-pack” flight
instrumentation mode lets you fly the gauges you’re used to if you’re new to glass. After flying
in the six-pack mode, try out the “EFIS” style as you get comfortable: changing the presentation
is just a few buttons away.
