The next page available under the GPS 155’s NRST key is the SUA alert page.

The SUA alert page will alert you with up to nine controlled or restricted airspaces
near or in your flight path, according to the following conditions:

• If your projected course will take you inside an SUA within the next 10

minutes, the message ‘SUA ahead < 10 min’ will be displayed.

• If you are within two nautical miles of an SUA and your current course will

take you inside, the message ‘SUA near & ahead’ will be displayed.

• If you are within two nautical miles of an SUA and your current course will not

take you inside, the message ‘Near SUA < 2nm’ will be displayed.

• If you have entered an SUA, the message ‘Inside SUA’ will be displayed.

Note that the GPS 155’s SUA alerts are based on three-dimensional data (latitude,

longitude and altitude) to avoid nuisance alerts. The alert boundaries for controlled
airspace are also sectorized to provide complete information on those airspaces. Once
you have met one of the described conditions, the message annunciator will flash,
alerting you of an SUA message.
