GPS NAVIGATION
• CALIBRATE AS (calibrated airspeed) - in auto mode, the primary source of information is from the air data
system, and the secondary source of information is the GPS ground speed.
• INDICATED ALTITUDE - In auto mode, the primary source of information is the barometric altitude, and the
secondary source of information is the GPS altitude.
• PRESSURE (barometric pressure)
• TOTAL AIR TEMPERATURE
TRIP STATS
• DTK (desired track)
• DIS (distance) - the distance is shown in tenths of units up to 99.9. The distance is shown in whole units
up to 9999.
• ETE (estimated time enroute) - this time is either be shown as minutes:seconds, if the time enroute is less
than an hour, as hours:minutes.
• ETA (estimated time of arrival)
• ESA (enroute safe altitude) - This value reflects either the ESA for the selected leg, for the route between two
selected waypoints, or for the entire flight plan, depending on what is currently selected.
• Destination sunrise and sunset times
FUEL STATS
• EFFICIENCY (fuel efficiency) - this value is calculated by dividing the current ground speed by the current
fuel flow.
• TOTAL ENDUR (time of fuel endurance) - this time is shown as hours:minutes and is obtained by dividing
the amount of fuel on board by the current fuel flow.
• REM FUEL (fuel on board upon reaching end of selected leg) - this value is calculated by taking the amount
of fuel onboard and subtracting the fuel required for trip.
• REM ENDUR (fuel endurance remaining at end of selected leg)
• FUEL REQ (fuel required for trip) - this value is calculated by multiplying the time to go by the fuel flow.
See fuel endurance for an explanation of how time to go is calculated.
• TOTAL RANGE (total range at entered fuel flow) - this value is calculated by multiplying the time of fuel
endurance by the ground speed.
OTHER STATS
• DENSITY ALT (density altitude)
• TRUE AIRSPEED
• WIND DIRECTION, WIND SPEED, TAIL or HEAD WIND (only in auto mode) - the head wind is shown
as a tail wind value if appropriate.
