1 SYSTEM OVERVIEW
1.1 System Description
This section provides an overview of the G500 Avionics Display System.
The G500 system is an integrated display system that presents primary flight
instrumentation, navigation, and a moving map to the pilot through large-
format displays.
In normal operating mode, the Primary Flight Display (PFD) presents
graphical flight instrumentation (attitude, heading, airspeed, altitude, vertical
speed), replacing the traditional flight instrument cluster. The Multi-Function
Display (MFD) normally displays a full-color moving map with navigation
information.
