Emergency Mode Displays
The following are examples of Emergency Mode displays. The display
below shows the second nearest airport to your present position
(PPOS). The waypoint identifier is shown in place of the PPos if you
are searching around a waypoint other than your present position. The
“2” on the top line indicates this is the second closest airport. The
second line shows the waypoint identifier, and the database. The
bottom line shows the bearing, relative bearing, and distance. The
relative bearing arrow shows the approximate direction relative to the
current ground track. In the example, the second closest airport to your
present position is SLE. The bearing to SLE is 75
o
, the relative bearing
is straight ahead, and the distance is 7.3 nm.
