PRIMARY FLIGHT DISPLAY (PFD)

Synthetic Vision Technology

Synthetic Vision Technology (SVT) is offered as a feature to the G500/G600.
SVT is primarily comprised of a computer-generated forward-looking, attitude
aligned view of the topography immediately in front of the aircraft from the pilot' s
perspective. SVT information is shown on the PFD.
SVT offers a three-dimensional view of terrain and obstacles. Terrain and
obstacles that pose a threat to the aircraft in flight are shaded yellow or red.
