2.2.1 Markings
A color-coded (white, green, yellow, and red/white “barber pole”) speed range
strip is located on the moving tape. The colors denote flaps operating range,
normal operating range, caution range, and never-exceed speed (V
NE
).
The Airspeed Trend Vector is a vertical, pink/magenta line, extending up or
down on the airspeed scale, shown to the right of the color-coded speed range
strip. The end of the trend vector corresponds to the predicted airspeed in six
seconds if the current acceleration is maintained. If the trend vector crosses V
NE
,
the text of the actual airspeed readout changes to yellow. The trend vector is
absent if the speed remains constant or if any data needed to calculate airspeed
is not available due to a system failure.
