A Proximity Advisory (PA) indicates that the intruding aircraft is within ±1200 feet
and is within a 5 nm range, but is still not considered a threat.±
A Traffic Advisory (TA) symbol appears as a solid yellow circle. All other traffic within
range is shown as a hollow white diamond. Altitude deviation from own aircraft
altitude is shown above the target symbol if traffic is above own aircraft altitude, and
below the symbol if they are below own aircraft altitude. Altitude trend is shown as an
up arrow (>+500 ft/min), down arrow (<-500 ft/min), or no symbol if less than 500 ft/
min rate in either direction.
