Foreword Sec 1 System 5.7.2.9 Unusual Attitudes Unusual attitudes are displayed with red chevrons overlaid on the display, pointing to the direction to fly to correct the unusual attitude condition. The display shows either a brown or blue band of color at the top or bottom of the screen to represent earth or sky. This is intended to prevent losing sight of the horizon during extreme pitch attitudes. Two conditions that inhibit SVT and generate alerts on the PFD: • The position of the aircraft exceeds the range of the terrain database. • The terrain database is out of date using an older terrain database card.
