6.1 XM SATELLITE WEATHER

NOTE:

XM Satellite Weather data provides information for avoiding hazardous weather. Do not utilize XM

Weather information to penetrate hazardous weather.

XM Satellite Weather is provided through the GDL 69A, a remote-mounted data-link satellite receiver. Received

graphical weather information and associated text is displayed on the Multi Function Display (MFD) and the
Primary Flight Display (PFD) Inset Map. The GDL 69A can also receive XM Satellite Radio® entertainment
services. Both weather data and entertainment programming operate in the S-band frequency range to provide
continuous reception capabilities at any altitude throughout North America.

XM Satellite Radio services are subscription-based. For more information on specific service packages, visit
