PITCH STABILIZATION CHECK

This in–flight adjustment is made in a bank when the ground returns do
not remain symmetrical during turns. The procedure is listed in table
7–7.
Step
1 Trim the aircraft for straight and level flight in smooth, clear
air over level terrain at an altitude of at least 10,000 feet
AGL.
2 Select the 50–mile range and GMAP mode.
3 Adjust the TILT control until your radar display shows a
solid band of ground returns starting at the 40–mile range
arc. See figure 7–9.
4 Place the aircraft between 5 and 10° pitch up. If there is
little change to the arc of ground returns, the pitch
stabilization is good.
