Unusual Attitudes - Garmin G1000 NXi Pilot's Manual

FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS
These items should be verified when operating in Dead Reckoning Mode as they become increasingly
inaccurate over time.

UNUSUAL ATTITUDES

When the aircraft enters an unusual pitch attitude, red chevrons pointing toward the horizon warn of extreme
pitch. The chevrons are displayed on the Attitude Indicator, starting at 50˚ above and 30˚ below the horizon
line.
If pitch exceeds +30˚/-20˚ or bank exceeds 65˚, some information displayed on the PFD is removed. The
Altimeter and Airspeed, Attitude, Vertical Speed, and Horizontal Situation indicators remain on the display
and the Bearing Information, Alerts, and Annunciation windows can be displayed during such situations. The
following information is removed from each PFD and their softkeys are disabled when the aircraft experiences
unusual attitudes:
• Traffic Annunciations
• AFCS Annunciations
• PFD Inset Map
• Outside Air Temperature (OAT)
• ISA temperature deviation
• Wind data
• Selected Heading readout
• Selected Course readout
• Transponder Status Box
