GMC 605

The GMC 605 provides indications to the pilot via a monochrome LCD combined
with three color LEDs that are located adjacent to the AP, FD, and YD keys.
The left side of the LCD displays lateral Flight Director modes, the center portion of
the display provides vertical modes and references, and the right side of the display
serves as a message area for status and alerts. Active modes and references are
depicted in large letters along the upper portion of the display, with armed modes
in a smaller font along the lower portion. The message area can display up to four
messages simultaneously.
Text can be flashed alternating between normal display and inverse video when
needed to get the pilot's attention.
