PFD Attitude Display (Typical)
1. Roll Indice
A white triangle at the top shows 0 degrees roll, short ticks show 10 and 20
degrees, long ticks show 30 and 60 degrees, and a triangle shows 45 degrees
roll. A white roll pointer (triangle) turns red if the roll angle will produce a
stall. 45-degree and 60-degree ticks are not shown for roll angles 30 degrees
or less.
Bank angle limits are ticks at the end of an arc. In NAV mode, limits are from
the FMS. If not in NAV, limits are the least of either FCP set (pilot) or FMS
stall protection limits. The white arc will turn red if the aircraft will stall with
a roll greater or equal to bank angle limit of 5 degrees.
2. Slip/Skid Indicator
A trapezoid moves parallel to the horizon line in the direction of rudder
required. It will turn amber when it becomes separated from the roll pointer.
3. Pitch Limit Indicator - cyan
Pitch Limit Indicator (PLI) is two cyan lines with feathers. The difference
between the line and the aircraft reference is Angle-of-attack (AOA)
remaining to stickshaker. The feathers are AOA remaining to stall. Just before
stickshaker this display turns amber. At stickshaker it turns red. When slats
are retracted the PLI cannot turn amber.
