Pathways are intended as an aid to situational awareness and should notbe used independent of the CDI, VDI, glide path indicator, and glide slope indicator. They are removed fromthe display when the selected navigation information is not available. Pathways are not displayed beyond theactive leg when leg sequencing is suspended and are not displayed on any portion of the flight plan leg thatwould lead to intercepting a leg in the wrong direction.DeParTUre anD enroUTePrior to intercepting an active flight plan leg, pathways are displayed as a series of boxes with pointers ateach corner that point in the direction of the active waypoint. Pathways are not displayed for the first legof the flight plan if that segment is a Heading-to-Altitude leg. The first segment displaying pathways is thefirst active GPS leg or active leg with a GPS overlay. If this leg of the flight plan route is outside the SVTfield of view, pathways will not be visible until the aircraft has turned toward this leg. While approachingthe center of the active leg and prescribed altitude, the number of pathway boxes decreases to a minimumof four.Climb profiles cannot be displayed due to the variables associated with aircraft performance. Flightplan legs requiring a climb are indicated by pathways displayed at a level above the aircraft at the altitudeselected or programmed.
