Chapter 2
Controls and Display
The VFR PFD is a at-panel LCD primary ight instrument that presents
the pilot with all of the information from the traditional six-pack of
mechanical instruments: Airspeed, Attitude, Altitude, Turn Coordinator,
Heading Indicator and Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI). Modern technology
and standard EFIS symbology enable the consolidation of all six
instruments into a single display, tightening the pilot’s instrument scan
and reducing pilot workload.
The PFD is a single vertical instrument that replaces the existing Attitude Indicator and
Heading Indicator. The display is divided into three parts: an upper Attitude Display,
a lower Navigation Display, and a Data Bar between the upper and lower halves. The
Attitude and Navigation displays are highly customizable — from stripped-down,
minimalist presentations, to dense, information-rich displays — depending on pilot
preference and phase of ight.
This chapter gives an overview of all the instruments, information, and controls of
the PFD. Table 2-1 and Figure 2-2 identify the controls and display orientation (see
Chapter 4, Reference Guide for more details).
