Velocity Vector
NOTE: Ghost velocity vector is not
Sg 4, fr 1A
generated in uncaged option; only in
The Following HUD Video Show:
caged option (discussed later in this
lesson).
* Aerobatic split-s
* NAV mode
2.
Limited (Uncaged) velocity vector
* Cruise sub-mode
characteristics
* Unlimited and limited velocity
vectors
a.
Occurs when the True velocity vector
* Caged and ghost velocity
vectors
position plot falls outside the velocity
vector display limits
Sg 4, fr 1B: Video 3
b.
Velocity vector flashes on velocity
vector display perimeter at a point that
SPLIT-S
indicates the approximate azimuth of
the displaced true velocity vector plot
Sg 4, fr 2
B. Caged option
1.
DEFINED: Both Caged and Ghost (True)
velocity vectors are generated for display
and the Caged velocity vector maintains
itself near the center of the HUD
VELOCITY VECTOR DISPLAY AREA
2.
Caged (solid) velocity vector is always
Sg 4, fr 3
visible (limited or unlimited)
3.
Caged velocity vector symbol is surrounded
by a circular 2 degree (as measured on
pitch ladder) occlusion zone that hides the
Ghost (True) velocity vector symbol, when
both are in close proximity, preventing them
from over-writing each other in the display
