2.10 Aerobatic Maneuvers

Do not conduct aerobatic maneuvers if uninterrupted attitude information is
required on the PFD.

2.11 Course Pointer Auto Slewing

The G500/G600 HSI will auto slew, i.e. automatically rotate the GPS course
pointer to the desired course defined by each GPS leg. The system will also auto
slew the VHF NAV course pointer when the CDI transitions to a LOC setting if
an ILS, LOC, LOC BC, LDA, or SDF approach is loaded in the GPS/SBAS
navigator.
The VHF NAV (green) course pointer will only auto slew if the approach is
loaded in the navigator, a LOC frequency is loaded in the active NAV frequency,
and then the HSI source is changed to the corresponding VHF NAV for the
approach. Back Course approaches will auto slew to the reciprocal course.
The system is not capable of automatically setting the inbound VHF NAV course
pointer if an approach is not loaded in the GPS/SBAS Navigation System. Auto
slewing the VHF NAV course pointer to the correct selected course is a database
dependent function.
The pilot shall confirm the inbound course pointer is set to the proper course
prior to initiating any transition on any VHF NAV approach.

2.12 Synthetic Vision Technology

The use of the synthetic vision display elements alone for aircraft control without
reference to the G500/G600 primary flight instruments or the aircraft standby
instruments is prohibited.
The use of the synthetic vision display alone for navigation, or obstacle, terrain,
or traffic avoidance is prohibited.

2.13 Autopilot Interface

Flight director commands on PFD 2 are repeated from PFD 1. When utilizing the
flight director display on PFD 2, the pilot shall ensure that the CDI source and
BARO settings on PFD 2 match those on PFD 1.
For installations where the GAD 43 provides attitude information to the
autopilot, the GAD 43 autopilot disconnect mechanism shall be tested and
operational before each flight using the autopilot.

2.14 Terrain Proximity Function

The G500/G600 terrain configuration is indicated on the dedicated terrain page
of the MAP group. "TERRAIN PROXIMITY" will be displayed as the page title
if this function is configured. Terrain information appears on the map and terrain
display pages as red and amber and is depicted for advisory use only. Obstacle
and wire information appears on the map and terrain display pages as red, amber,
