Table 4-3 TAWS Terrain/Obstacle Colors and Symbology
4.4.6.1 TAWS Page
TAWS information is displayed on the last page of the Map page group.
The TAWS Page is specialized to show terrain, obstacle, and potential impact
point data in relation to the aircraft’s current altitude, without clutter from the
basemap. Aviation data (airports, VORs, and other NAVAIDs) can be displayed
for reference. If an obstacle and the projected flight path of the aircraft intersect,
the display automatically zooms in to the closest potential point of impact on
the TAWS Page.
Aircraft orientation on this map is always heading up unless there is no valid
heading. If orientation is not heading up, it will be track up. Two views are
available relative to the position of the aircraft: the 360° default display and the
radar-like ARC (120°) display. Map range is adjustable with the RNG keys from 1
to 200 NM, as indicated by the map range rings (or arcs).
