Introduction
The NDs provide a mode–selectable color flight progress display. The modes are:
The MAP, VOR, and APP modes can be switched between an expanded mode
with a partial compass rose and a centered mode with a full compass rose.
Map Mode
The MAP mode is recommended for most phases of flight. This mode shows
airplane position relative to the route of flight against a moving map background.
Displayed information can include:
Navigation Data Points
Additional navigation facility (STA), waypoint (WPT), airport (ARPT), route
progress (DATA) and position (POS) data are available for display on the ND in
both the expanded and center map modes.
VOR and Approach Modes
The VOR and APP modes are presented heading up. The VOR and APP modes
display track, heading, and wind speed and direction with VOR navigation or
approach information.
Plan Mode
The PLN mode is presented true north up. The active route may be viewed using
the STEP prompt on the CDU LEGS pages.
