COMMAND bARS

Upon activation of the flight director, Command Bars are displayed in magenta on the PFDs as a single-cue.

The Command Bars do not override the (yellow) Aircraft Symbol. The single-cue Command Bars (Figure 7-5)
move together vertically to indicate pitch commands and bank left or right to indicate roll commands.
