Detailed Operation
VFR Chart (VFR) Function
The VFR Chart function shows a VFR sectional
style map for the display. Topographic features are
shown. The VFR display shows navigational aid infor-
mation and the flight plan course line. The “smart”
keys on the bottom of the screen control zooming
in and out, panning, and the display of information
about the current TO waypoint. The options available
for the VFR mode include Flight Plan, screen orienta-
tion, Invert, and turning labels on or off. Review the
Limitations section in the front of this guide for the
limitations that apply to the data displayed on the
moving map. The zoom scale is limited to a maximum
of 300 NM.
Safetaxi
SafeTaxi airport diagrams are always drawn if
available in the database. SafeTaxi airport diagrams
are drawn when the zoom scale is 15 NM, or lower,
with progressively more details shown as the scale
decreases.

Hot Spots
Airport diagrams may show areas where extra
vigilance is recommended due to traffic congestion,
visibility constraints, or other unique circumstances.
These areas are called “hot spots” and are identified
by circular or elliptical lines. Although these areas are
highlighted as places where extra caution is war-
ranted and advised, they do not relieve the pilot of the
responsibility to “see and avoid” other traffic or obsta-
cles, on the airport surface or in the air. All taxiway
and runway intersections should be approached with
caution, whether they are marked with hot spots or
not. Runways where Land and Hold Short Operations
(LAHSO) may be in effect are identified with yellow
lines across the runway labeled “LAHSO”. Other areas
where extra vigilance is recommended, such as con-
struction zones, may also outlined with yellow lines.
Hot spots and other outlined areas are derived from
database information and may therefore contain errors
or may not be included in the database.
