Foreword System Sec 1 PFD Sec 2 5.7.2.7 Obstacles Obstacles are represented on the synthetic display by standard two- dimensional tower symbols found on the MFD maps and charts. Obstacle symbols appear in the perspective view with relative height above terrain and distance from the aircraft. Obstacle Alert Obstacle Figure 5-35 Obstacle Depiction on PFD Unlike the MFD moving map display, obstacles on the synthetic terrain display do not change colors to warn of potential conflict with the aircraft's flight path until the obstacle is associated with an actual FLTA alert. Obstacles greater than 1000 feet below the aircraft's altitude are not shown. Obstacles are shown behind the airspeed and altitude displays.
