If no change in rate-of-climb, airspeed, or altitude is observed:
7. Pilot’s Static Air Source ........................................................................................ SELECT NORMAL
8. Compare indicated altitude to GPS altitude on MFD AUX-GPS STATUS page to aid in determining
which primary system is most accurate.
NOTE
When comparing indicated altitude to GPS altitude, deviations from standard temperature or
pressure can cause indicated altitude to deviate from GPS altitude. Those errors are largest at high
altitude. Below 10,000 feet with the correct local altimeter setting set, GPS altitude will usually be
within 600 feet or better of the correct indicated altitude. Use the following guidelines to help estimate
correct altitude from non-standard conditions:
 Temperatures WARMER than standard can cause GPS altitude to read HIGHER than indicated
altitude.
 Pressures LOWER than standard can cause GPS altitude to read HIGHER than indicated
altitude.
If Able to Identify Accurate Altitude Source:
1. Autopilot ALT Mode .................................................................................................... DISENGAGED
2. Use SENSOR softkey to select most accurate ADC on both PFD’s.
3. Confirm or annunciators are displayed on both PFDs
4. Autopilot ALT Mode ...................................................................................... ENGAGE AS DESIRED
 In RVSM Airspace:
5. Altitude ................................................................ CROSS-CHECK USING STANDBY ALTIMETER
Record each altimeter reading for contingency procedure use
NOTE
The standby altimeter must be corrected for position error using the Altimeter Correction –
Standby System chart in the Performance section of this supplement.
6. Advise ATC of loss of redundancy of primary altimetry systems. Perform appropriate RVSM
contingency procedures outlined in the operator’s RVSM manual for the loss of redundancy of
primary altimetry systems.
