NOTE: SVT features are not a substitute for standard course and altitude
deviation information using the CDI, VSI, and VDI presentations.
5.5.3.1 Flight Path Marker (FPM)
The Flight Path Marker is also known as a Velocity Vector. It is displayed
on the PFD at ground speeds above 30 knots. The FPM depicts approximate
projected path of the aircraft.
5.5.3.2 Zero-Pitch Line
The Zero-Pitch Line is drawn completely across the display and provides a
reference line by which to judge aircraft attitude with respect to the horizon. It
is not necessarily aligned with the terrain horizon, particularly when the terrain
is sloped or mountainous.
