Functions and Features
NOTE: Green colors indicating terrain/obstacles below the aircraft are
NOT shown when the aircraft is on the ground, to reduce display clutter
and to show only terrain that is significantly higher than the aircraft in the
departure area. Green colors will appear when the aircraft has climbed
approximately 500 to 800 feet above the elevation of the runway.
The following pictures show two examples of the Terrain Display.
