AeroNav 900/880 Series Pilot's Guide
SYNTHETIC VISION (SVS) TAB
The SVS tab on the MAP page provides a hybrid view of your aircraft
and flight plan from a virtual wingman who is flying above and behind
your present position. This is an "exocentric" view.
The aircraft ownship symbol is displayed just like the 2D map as well
as the shadow it casts on the ground. The ground shadow
represents your aircraft position over the ground.
The viewing position of that virtual wingman is directly above and
behind the displayed ownship symbol. Twisting either ring of the
bottom right knob (outer ring for coarse control, inner ring for fine
control) or pinch zooming the display will adjust the perceived
distance above and behind the ownship symbol and pushing the
knob restores the default zoom value.
If a flight plan is active in the FMS and is within the current field of
view, it will be displayed floating over the map at a point
approximately 300 meters below ownship altitude. This flight plan
will also cast a conformal shadow across the terrain immediately
below the flight plan.
