HEADING STRIP AND TURN RATE INDICATOR

The Heading Strip displays the Current Heading, Selected Heading Bug, Current
Heading, and Current Track Indicator. Numeric labels occur every 10˚. Major tick marks
are at 5˚ intervals and minor tick marks at 1˚ intervals. A digital reading of the current
heading appears in the center of the Heading Strip.
The Turn Rate Indicator is located above the Heading Strip. Tick marks to the left and
right of the displayed heading denote standard turn rates (3 deg/sec). A magenta Turn
Rate Trend Vector shows the current turn rate. The end of the trend vector gives the
heading predicted in 6 seconds, based on the present turn rate. A standard-rate turn
is shown on the indicator by the trend vector stopping at the standard turn rate tick
mark, corresponding to a predicted heading of 18˚ from the current heading. At rates
greater than 4 deg/sec, an arrowhead appears at the end of the magenta trend vector
and the prediction is no longer valid.
