2.1 INTRODUCTION
WARNING:Intheeventthattheairspeed,attitude, altitude,orheadingindicationsbecomeunusable, please refer to the backup instruments.
This section describes the major features of the G1000 Primary Flight Display (PFD) as installed on Cessna Nav III aircraft. Information is displayed using the G1000’s two 10.4-inch color flat-panel displays. During normal operation, the left display is configured as a Primary Flight Display.
The PFD provides increased situational awareness by replacing the traditional instrument “six pack” on the pilot’s panel with an easy-to-scan display that provides a large horizon and airspeed, attitude, altitude, vertical speed, navigation, communication, annunciation, terrain, traffic, and lightning (optional) information. The PFD also controls the operation of the transponder, the selection of NAV/COM frequencies, audio volume, and many navigation features. The operation of these features is explained in other supporting sections.
The G1000 system controls were designed so that, regardless of which seat the pilot is flying from, the aircraft can be flown with one hand and the controls manipulated with the other hand.
