OPERATOR’S MANUAL
CMA-9000 FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
LDG ELEV [3L]: This field displays the airfield landing elevation (in feet) when the QFE baro setting is
selected.
The displayed Landing Elevation is computed based on the altitude extracted from the navigation database for:
• the destination runway (if available); OR
• the destination airport
and is converted to an elevation (AGL) based on the selected QFE setting.
ERASE [6L]: "ERASE" is only displayed when an active flight plan modification is in progress. Pressing this
key will undo all changes to the active flight plan and return to the ACT Route status.
Destination Airport QNH/QFE [1R]: Entry and display of the predicted barometric correction (e.g. QNH or
QFE) at the destination airport.
Entry is used to optimize the FMS-VNAV descent profile computation only.
Valid range for QNH is either 27.00 to 32.00 (inches of mercury) or 915 to 1083 (millibars).
Valid range for QFE is either 22.00 to 32.00 (in Hg) or 745 to 1083 millibars
The decimal point is not required and the FMS automatically detects which unit system from the value entered.
Deletion of a manual entry is allowed.
Pressing the LSK while the scratchpad is empty toggles the displayed QNH/QFE unit system between inches of
mercury and millibars.
Manual entry is displayed in white large font. When no value has been entered or an initial entry has been
deleted, the data line displays dashes. The field is blank while in descent and the actual QNH/QFE is set by the
crew (e.g. via the display control panel (DCP)).
Correction [2R]: Toggles the selection of the predicted baro setting at the landing airport (e.g. QFE or QNH)
displayed at [1R]. Line selection shall toggle the data field between QFE and QNH.
