TURN RATE INDICATOR

The Turn Rate Indicator is located directly above the rotating compass card. Tick marks to the left and right

of the lubber line denote half-standard and standard turn rates. A magenta Turn Rate Trend Vector shows the
current turn rate. The end of the trend vector gives the heading predicted in six seconds, based on the present
turn rate. A standard-rate turn is shown on the indicator by the trend vector stopping at the standard turn
rate tick mark, corresponding to a predicted heading of 18˚ from the current heading. At rates greater than 4
deg/sec, an arrowhead appears at the end of the magenta trend vector and the prediction is no longer valid.

BEARING POINTERS AND INFORMATION WINDOWS

NOTE:

When the Arc HSI is displayed, the Bearing Information windows and pointers are disabled.

Two bearing pointers and associated information can be displayed on the HSI by pressing the PFD Softkey

then a BRG Softkey. Use the BRG Softkey to cycle through bearing sources (NAV, GPS, ADF). The pointers
are light blue and are single- (BRG1) or double-lined (BRG2); an icon is shown in the respective information
window to indicate the pointer type. The bearing pointers never override the CDI and are visually separated
from the CDI by a white ring (shown when bearing pointers are selected but not necessarily visible due to
data unavailability).
