Figure 13--9 shows the terrain display color patterns when the aircraft

is at higher altitudes, where terrain is a least 250 feet below the aircraft

altitude for the display range selected by the pilot.

Figure 13--9

Terrain Display -- Higher Altitudes

The KSN 765/770 display adjusts colors on the TAWS view

automatically as the aircraft altitude changes. In addition, the TAWS

view transitions between the lower altitude relative display and the

higher altitude peaks display automatically, so no pilot--action is

required for system operation.

The most important function of the system is to give the pilot the ability

to easily interpret information about terrain/obstacles relative to the

aircraft and increase the situational awareness of the pilot.
