FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS
Turn Rate Indicator and Heading Trend Vector
Tick marks to the left and right of the lubber line
denote half-standard and standard turn rates. A magenta
turn rate trend vector shows the current turn rate. The
end of the trend vector gives the heading predicted in six
seconds, based on the present turn rate. At rates greater
than 4 deg/sec, an arrowhead appears at the end of the
magenta trend vector and the prediction is no longer
valid.

Course Pointer
The course pointer is a single line arrow (GPS, VOR1
and LOC1) or double line arrow (VOR2 and LOC2) which
points in the direction of the set course.

Course Deviation Indicator (CDI)
The CDI scale automatically adjusts to the current
phase of flight as seen in Figure 2-22. Scaling may be
selected manually from the MFD System Setup Page.
