2.2 RADAR DISPLAY INDICATOR
Figure 2.2-1. MFD Display
The MFD displays green, yellow and red moving maps of weather and
surface features.
The choice of two weather modes, three search modes and antenna scan
of 60 or 120 degrees is selected by the pilot. A target alert feature is active
in the weather alert mode, and a movable track cursor helps the pilot plan
his flight around severe weather. A beacon mode enables the display of
beacon locations and a code feature identifies the beacons. Beacon
Formatting allows for the display of either standard or DO-172 type
beacons. This information can be displayed in any of eight separate ranges.
