8. To the right of the heading scale, the current altitude is indicated. For altitude less than
1,500 meters above ground level, the radio altitude is indicated to within 1 m. At an
altitude over 1,500 meters barometric, the height is shown to within 10 meters. Above the
scale the required altitude is shown. This will depend on the flight mode and in the case of
route flight mode, it shows the preplanned route altitude.
9. The current heading is positioned in the upper portion of the HUD. It shows the aircraft’s
