Selecting Desired On-Screen Data

At the bottom of the default NAV page you'll find
six user-definable fields which display the data you'll
need as your flight progresses. By default these fields
display: distance to destination (DIS), desired track
(DTK), bearing to destination (BRG), ground speed
(GS), ground track (TRK) and estimated time en route
(ETE). However, each of these fields can be custom-
tailored to your preferences by selecting a different
data item. Available data items include:
• Bearing to destination (BRG)
• Distance to destination (DIS)
• D esired track (DTK)
• En route safe altitude (ESA)
• Estimated time of arrival (ETA)
• Estimate time en route (ETE)
• Fuel Flow (FLOW)
(When Configured)
• Ground speed (GS)
• Minimum safe altitude (MSA)
• Track angle error (TKE)
• Ground track (TRK)
• Vertical speed required (VSR)
• Cross track error (XTK)
If no flight plan or direct-to destination has been
selected only speed, track, altitude and minimum
safe altitude data may be displayed. All other data
types will appear as blank lines—on the default NAV
page—until a destination is selected.
