Route Overlays

Welcome to this week's Top of Climb where over the next editions, we'll be looking at en route settings (also known as 'map settings') which is depicted by the two cogs on the top right hand corner of the en route page.

In this edition, we're going to take a look at Terrain Overlays.


 

Terrain Overlays


A terrain overlay can be added to all mega maps.

The overlay operates in two distinct modes:
 

Plan Mode

When the flight plan is in Plan Mode, the terrain overlay colour codes the terrain based on the highest cruise altitude in your flight plan.

Fly Mode

When in Fly Mode, the terrain overlay colour codes the terrain based on the current altitude. In flight, the terrain overlay will update every 150 foot vertical change during climb or descent.
 

Colour Codes

 
Yellow Terrain that is 1500 feet below to 500 feet below you
Red Terrain that extends from 500 feet below to above you
 

*Note: Displaying the terrain overlay is independent of the provision of Terrain & Obstacle Warnings.
