ATTITUDE INDICATOR

NOTE:

Some supplemental PFD information disappears when pitch exceeds +30˚/-20˚ or bank exceeds 65˚.

Attitude information is displayed over a virtual blue sky and brown ground with a white horizon line. The

Attitude Indicator displays the pitch, roll, and slip/skid information.

The horizon line is part of the pitch scale. Above and below the horizon line, major pitch marks and numeric

labels are shown for every 10˚, up to 80˚. Minor pitch marks are shown for intervening 5˚ increments, up
to 25˚ below and 45˚ above the horizon line. Between 20˚ below to 20˚ above the horizon line, minor pitch
marks occur every 2.5˚. Red extreme pitch warning chevrons pointing toward the horizon are displayed,
starting at 50˚ above and 30˚ below the horizon line.

The inverted white triangle indicates zero on the roll scale. Major tick marks at 30˚ and 60˚ and minor

tick marks at 10˚, 20˚, and 45˚ are shown to the left and right of the zero. Angle of bank is indicated by the
position of the pointer on the roll scale.

The Slip/Skid Indicator is the bar beneath the roll pointer. The indicator moves with the roll pointer and

moves laterally away from the pointer to indicate lateral acceleration. Slip/skid is indicated by the location
of the bar relative to the pointer. One bar displacement is equal to one ball displacement on a traditional
Slip/Skid Indicator.
