6. For installations with a MAG-500, the Heading Degraded
operation occurs if the Roll value is greater than 11.5° for three
minutes, or if the “ATT DEGRADED” indication is shown. The pilot
is alerted to this degraded mode of operation by an amber “HDG
DEGRADED” indication on the display.
• Heading information continues to be shown, but at a lesser
performance.
• When air data is failed, heading is invalid.
