3.1.5 RATE OF TURN
A white stationary rate of turn scale pro-
vides the reference for the rate of turn
pointer. A standard rate turn (3
degrees/second) is indicated by the pointer
aligning directly under the left or right
index.
3.1.6 SPEED COMMAND
A stationary white vertical scale located on the
left side of the EADI is the reference for the
fast-slow pointer (orange circle). The speed
command circle indicates deviation from the
selected speed. This scale and pointer may not
be displayed in some installations.
3.1.7 GLIDESLOPE INDICATOR
A white stationary dotted vertical scale located
on the left side of the indicator is the reference
for the glideslope deviation pointer (white trian-
gle). The glideslope pointer indicates the cen-
ter of the glideslope with respect to the actual
aircraft position.
3.1.8 RISING RUNWAY
A green runway symbol representing the
airport runway moves laterally in relation to
a white expanded localizer deviation scale.
The lateral deviation indicates the aircraft
position with respect to the localizer center-
line. The runway symbol rises linearly to
indicate radio altitude below 200 feet. The
runway begins to rise at 200 feet and
touches the bottom of the aircraft symbol at
zero feet of radio altitude.
