the baro transition altitude. If the aircraft is at least 500 feet below the transition altitude and then climbs
through this altitude and the

Softkey has not been pressed, the barometric pressure setting flashes
in cyan until the pressure setting is changed. If the aircraft is at least 500 feet above the transition altitude and
then descends through this altitude and the barometric pressure setting has not been changed from STD BARO,
the setting flashes in cyan until it is changed (Figure 2-12).
