Derived Angle of Attack can be configured for display in the inner left
area of the screen and consists of a series of colored stacked bars
that indicates the current AoA relative to the configured minimum
and maximum limits.
The lowest green bar corresponds to a current AoA matching the
configured lower limit point. The first red bar corresponds to a
current AoA matching the configured upper limit.
AoA limit points are pilot selectable and are set in the
pilot accessible Setup Menu.
