4.4.4.1 TAWS Page
TAWS information is displayed on the last page of the Map page group. The
TAWS Page is specialized to show terrain, obstacle, and Threat Area Indication
data in relation to the aircraft’s current altitude, without clutter from the
basemap. Aviation data (airports, VORs, and other NAVAIDs) can be displayed
for reference. The display automatically zooms in to the closest potential point
of impact on the TAWS Page.
