Speed Indication

The numeric labels and major tick marks on the
moving tape are marked at intervals of 10 knots. Minor
tick marks are at intervals of 5 knots. Speed indication
starts at 20 knots. High speed awareness is represented by
a red and white 'barber pole'. If the airspeed trend vector
reaches the 'barber pole', the digits in the pointer turn
yellow. If the airspeed pointer reaches the 'barber pole',
the pointer turns red (refer to Figure 2-5).
Figure 2-5 Red Pointer
Low speed awareness is represented by a red speed
range. Refer to the Pilot' s Operating Handbook (POH) for
speed criteria.

Airspeed Trend Vector
The end of the trend vector displays approximately
what the airspeed will be in 6 seconds if the current rate
of acceleration/deceleration is maintained.
Vspeed References
Vspeeds are set using the TMR/REF Softkey. When
active (ON), the Vspeeds are displayed at their respective
locations to the right of the airspeed scale.
True Airspeed Box
The True Airspeed box is located below the Airspeed
indicator and displays the true airspeed in knots.

ATTITUDE INDICATOR

The Slip/Skid Indicator is located under the roll pointer
and moves laterally away from the pointer to indicate
lateral acceleration. One Slip/Skid indicator displacement
is equal to one ball displacement when compared to a
traditional slip/skid indicator.
