radar showing terrain

Recommended Posts

How do I get the terrain to show on the radar? I noticed in a u-tube video it was showing the surrounding terrain.

Could not find it in the manual.

Thanks for any help.

The EGPWS (which is what you are seeking I think) and its ON/OFF switch is located little awkwardly on the left of the nav display on the captain side, often blocked in view by the yoke.

And fyi it's not really radar, it's topographical database which is displayed relative to the aircraft

there's a terrain 'map' mode on the wx radar, but according to Dave, not expected to be activated until the forthcoming service pack.
