Airport chart (chartView)
Airport surface charts provide a graphical presen-
tation of the airport surface area (runways, taxiways,
buildings, towers, and other objects), within the
immediate airport vicinity. The Airport Chart items are
not available with FliteCharts.

(Page 1)
From either the Custom Map or the IFR En Route
Map, airport surface charts will automatically be
loaded and displayed as an overlay if the following
conditions are met:
•
The airport surface chart is within the loaded
database
•
The airport surface chart is geo-referenced by
Jeppesen
•
Airport Chart menu layer is turned on
•
The aircraft position is within the coverage of the
chart
•
A loaded approach chart is not being “flown”
If an airport diagram is available in both the Safe-
Taxi and ChartView databases and the Airport Chart
option is enabled, the ChartView airport chart will
be displayed. The SafeTaxi airport diagram will be dis-
played if the Airport Chart option is disabled.
terrain
The Terrain option allows you select the display of
topographical features. Pressing the
MENU ITEM
key
next to the Terrain option scrolls between sectional
(absolute), terrain awareness (relative), or no display
of topographical features. The sectional (absolute)
display shows a display similar to a sectional map.
The terrain awareness (relative) display shows a color
coded view where the colors relate to terrain elevation
relative to your altitude.

For more information about the terrain awareness
option, see the Terrain function section. When you
turn the Terrain feature off, the background is either
black or white depending on your selection in the
Invert option. When no terrain data is available, the
missing areas will be shown in light blue. Water will
not be shown in relative mode. Review the Limitations
section in the front of this guide.
