SYSTEM OVERVIEW
White Text Light Blue Text Light Blue Subdued Text
Large Text
Altitude calculated by the system
estimating the altitude of the
aircraft as it passes over the
navigation point. This altitude
is provided as a reference and
is not designated to be used in
determining vertical speed and
deviation guidance.
Altitude has been entered by the
pilot. Altitude is designated for
use in giving vertical speed and
deviation guidance. Altitude does
not match the published altitude
in navigation database or no
published altitude exists.
The system cannot use this altitude
in determining vertical speed and
deviation guidance.
Small Text
Altitude is not designated to
be used in determining vertical
speed and deviation guidance.
Altitude has been retrieved from
the navigation database and is
provided as a reference.
Altitude is designated for use in
giving vertical speed and deviation
guidance. Altitude has been
retrieved from the navigation
database or has been entered by
the pilot and matches a published
altitude in the navigation database.
The system cannot use this altitude
in determining vertical speed and
deviation guidance.

Some altitudes retrieved from the database have
associated restrictions indicating to stay ‘At’, ‘At or Above’,
or ‘At or Below’ a specific altitude. These restrictions are
indicated using a ‘bar’ above and/or below the appropriate
altitude as shown in Figure 1-9.
Cross AT or ABOVE 5,000 ft
Cross AT or BELOW 3,000 ft
Cross AT 2,300 ft

which further illustrates vertical navigation in more
detail.
