HAZARD AVOIDANCE

TAWS PAGE

The TAWS Page is specialized to show terrain, obstacle, and potential impact point data in relation to the 

aircraft’s current altitude, without clutter from the basemap.  Aviation data (airports, VORs, and other NAVAIDs) 

can be displayed for reference.  If an obstacle and the projected flight path of the aircraft intersect, the display 

automatically zooms in to the closest potential point of impact on the TAWS Page.

Aircraft orientation on this map is always heading up unless there is no valid heading.  Two view are available 

relative to the position of the aircraft: the 360° default display and the radar-like ARC (120°) display.  Map range 

is adjustable with the 

Joystick

 from 1 to 200 nm, as indicated by the map range rings (or arcs).
