TERRAIN PROXIMITY SYMBOLS

The symbols and colors in Figure 6-43 and Table 6-6 are used to represent obstacles and aircraft altitude
on the Terrain Proximity Page. Terrain Proximity uses black, yellow, and red to represent terrain information
relative to aircraft altitude.
�������
The color of each obstacle is associated with the altitude of the aircraft. The color of the terrain also uses these
color assignments.
