6 TILT KNOB
The rotary TILT knob is used to set the tilt angle of the antenna beam
with relation to the aircraft's longitudinal axis. Clockwise rotation tilts the

downward to –15_.
A digital readout of the antenna tilt angle is displayed on the MFD.
TO AVOID FLYING UNDER OR OVER STORMS, FREQUENTLY
SELECT MANUAL TILT TO SCAN BOTH ABOVE AND BELOW THE
