FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS
HORIZONTAL SITUATION INDICATOR (HSI)
The Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI) displays a rotating compass card in a heading-up orientation. Letters
indicate the cardinal points and numeric labels occur every 30˚. Major tick marks are at 10˚ intervals and minor
tick marks at 5˚ intervals. The HSI presents heading, turn rate, course deviation, bearing, and navigation source
information in a 360˚ compass-rose format.
The HSI contains a Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) with a course pointer arrow, a To/From arrow, a sliding
deviation bar, and scale. The course pointer is a single line arrow (GPS, VOR1, and LOC1) or a double line
arrow (VOR2 and LOC2) which points in the direction of the set course. The To/From arrow rotates with the
course pointer and is displayed when the active NAVAID is received.

A digital reading of the current heading appears on top of the HSI. The current track is represented on the
HSI by a magenta diamond bug. To the upper left of the HSI, the Selected Heading is shown in light blue; the
light blue bug on the compass rose corresponds to the Selected Heading. The Selected Course is shown to the
upper right of the HSI. The color of the Selected Course corresponds to the selected navigation source: magenta
for GPS or green for NAV (VOR, LOC).
