Section 14. Primary Flight Display (PFD)
When an Autoflight system mode becomes the active engaged mode, the green text
of the active mode pulses with variable intensity for three seconds and then becomes
steady. The autothrottle system, if engaged by pilot, will manipulate the throttles
automatically to hold the airspeed target during descents and cruise flight.
A complete list of flight mode annunciations is located in Appendix A of this
document.
14.3.4 Tile 2 – Attitude Direction Indicator & Primary Flight Information
In Tile-2 the PFD continuously displays primary flight instruments of attitude,
airspeed, altitude, and vertical speed. Tile 2 also displays flight director cues,
autopilot targets, air data instrument trends, slip/skid, precision approach path
deviations, mach, radar altitude, and barometric (BARO) correction. Air data
instruments and other alphanumeric fields are overlaid on top of the attitude indicator
Autoflight System Mode Depictions. The engagement state of the autopilot and yaw
damper are presented outside of the FMA window in tile 2.

NOTE:
A specific annunciation of autothrottle engagement state is not required since if
engaged, by pilot action or automatically, text appears in the autothrottle portion
of the Flight Mode Annunciation window.
