RUNWAY PLOT
The Runway Plot page consists of four graphs:
The runway plots are active when the aircraft is on the active runway or less than 35 ft above it.
The 'zero' point on the graphs is the active runway threshold.
The graphs are sized to the actual active runway length as defined in the Navigation Data. There is no Scale control.
The plots are erased under the following conditions:
The position of Microbursts and Windshears are displayed using representative symbols (a shear sign and a spiral with a down arrow) on the aircraft position graph. The symbols are displayed in magenta.
The aircraft position graph displays a vertical yellow bar as an 'incident' marker. This is displayed when any malfunction is activated while this plot is active.
