TAWS Terrain and Obstacle Data
Graphical display of EGPWS terrain and obstacle data is the most
important enhancement to situational awareness. This is especially
true for lower performance aircraft. In addition to showing terrain ahead
of the aircraft, (depending on configuration settings and display types)
the KSN 765/770 displays MSL altitude, magnetic track, range in
nautical miles, and the elevations of the highest and lowest terrain
features shown on the display. The color and intensity of the terrain
displayed instantly alerts the pilot to areas of dangerous terrain and
conversely to areas of less precipitous terrain.
NOTE: Only reported obstacles are displayed.
The terrain legend, shown in Figure 13--7, is displayed when the
LGND bezel softkey label is active.
