indicated by a green band along the Roll Scale of the Attitude Indicator.
The CWS button does not change lateral references for Heading Select, Navigation, Backcourse, or

autopilot to return the aircraft within command limits. The autopilot is capable of commanding the aircraft
in the following ranges:
