KING AIR C90GTi/C90GTx PILOT TRAINING MANUAL
FMS Present Position Map
Format
The FMS Present Position (PPOS) map is a
moving pictorial of the flight. The map is cen-
tered on the airplane present position with the
current heading at the top of the display.
To see an extended image beyond the range
arc, the MFD window previously discussed can
be turned OFF by using the UPPER FOR-
MAT key. This provides 50% more range
above the normal navigation display similar to
the Plan Map Format discussed earlier.
The current range is displayed on the two con-
centric range arcs, controlled by the DCP. The
displayed range will always be equal to the
ranges displayed on the left PFD. This will be
limited to 50nm if TCAS traffic has been se-
lected on the left PFD; 300nm if TCAS display
is OFF and overlays have been selected on the
left PFD or MFD; or 600nm if no overlays or
TCAS are selected on the left PFD or MFD.
TCAS Information
TCAS traffic may be displayed on a TCAS-
only format, or overlayed on the PPOS format.
To overlay TCAS on the PPOS format, simply
press the TFC line select key to turn it cyan. A
TCAS message-only area will be present
below this TFC key (e.g., TCAS TEST, TA
ONLY, etc.).
The TCAS-only format can be selected by the
LOWER FORMAT key or by pressing and
holding the traffic (TFC) key for more than 2
seconds (Figure 16-26). The display is a 360˚,
heading up image that only shows traffic and
initially displays with a 10nm scale. It does not
show the weather radar, terrain, or FMS map.
Figure 16-26. MFD TCAS only
Either selection will depict nearby transpon-
der-equipped airplanes who are in close prox-
imity or who are predicted collision threats
(Figure 16-27). There can be up to 30 traffic in-
dications on the display at one time.
