System Description

This section provides an overview of the G500 Avionics Display System.
The G500 system is an integrated display system that presents primary flight
instrumentation, navigation, and a moving map to the pilot through large-
format displays.
In normal operating mode, the Primary Flight Display (PFD) presents
graphical flight instrumentation (attitude, heading, airspeed, altitude, vertical
speed), replacing the traditional flight instrument cluster. The Multi-Function
Display (MFD) normally displays a full-color moving map with navigation
information.
