2.3.1 Primary Flight Information
While essential informations like airspeed, altitude, track and rate of
climb are displayed permanently, the content of the third line is selected
out of a predefined set (described in section 2.3.2).
Airspeed (IAS), Altitude (ALT) and Rate of Climb (RoC) are pressure
derived values; the altitude depends onto the selected QNH setting.
The units in which airspeed, altitude, rate of climb and the QNH are
indicated are configurable (see 2.4). It can be chosen from the following
units:
Speed (IAS) .............. kt (knots) or km/h (kilometres per hour)
Altitude (ALT) ........... ft (feet) or m (meter)
Rate of Climb (RoC) . ft/min (feet per minute) or m/s (meter per second)
If altitude and rate of climb are given in ft or ft/min respectively, the last
two numbers are shown downsized. As the rate of climb is shown without
a unit designator the layout of the numerical value (last two digits
downsized) gives information on the unit used.
