HAZARD AVOIDANCE
Vertically scanning a storm cell:
NOTE: Vertical scanning of a storm cell should be done with the aircraft wings level to avoid constant
adjustment of the Bearing Line.
1) While in the Horizontal Scan view, select the BRG Softkey. This places the cursor in the BEARING field and
displays the Bearing Line (Figure 6-45).
If the Bearing Line is not displayed, press the MENU Key and turn the large FMS Knob to select ‘Show Bearing
Line’. Press the ENT Key.
2) Turn the small FMS Knob to place the Bearing Line on the desired storm cell or other area to be vertically
scanned.
