STANDBY COMPASS
The standby compass is displayed when the access panel is pushed upwards shortly. It can be stored by pushing it
upwards. The standby compass should not be used for normal operation.
STANDBY HORIZON
The standby horizon is a backup for the IRU and EFIS system and shows attitude, altitude, speed and barometric
pressure. The standby horizon should not be used for normal operation.
