9. Where is the control for the Altimeter barometric pressure setting located? The BARO Knob is located on the right-hand side of the PFD (in some installations, exists as the large outer knob of the CRS/BARO Knob). 10. What are the ranges of viewable tape in the Altimeter and Airspeed Indicator? The Altimeter has 600 feet viewable at a time; 60 knots are viewable on the Airspeed Indicator at any one time. 11. A pilot is flying through the Rocky Mountains and decides to land at KASE in Aspen, CO. The RNAV (GPS) 15 approach via radar vectors is assigned. It is daytime, although visibility is limited to a few miles with cloud tops at 10,000 feet MSL. What options should be selected for display on the PFD Inset Map? Going into Aspen, one should focus on the approach as well as on the other key item-terrain. Therefore, declutter the display to show the approach and turn on the terrain and traffic display overlays. Eliminating the topography shading provides higher contrast in the displayed colors on the map, allowing the pilot to focus on avoiding a CFIT (Controlled Flight into Terrain) accident and to stand a better chance of being able to see and avoid traffic departing runway 33 out of KASE. 32 GIFD Pilot's Training Guide 190-00368-05 Rev.
