desired track and the crosstrack
distance (figure 4-148). In either
case, the same information is
displayed. This is a cyclic field, so
you can change back and forth from
the two options by turning on the cur-

sor (

) over the second line and pressing the

E

button.

The CDI’s vertical bar operates like a navigation deviation needle on
a conventional CDI or HSI using VOR/Localizer navigation. An on-
course indication is displayed when the vertical deviation bar is
centered on the triangle in the middle of the CDI. In both modes (en
route and OBS, see

section 5.3

), each dot represents one nautical

mile deviation from the desired track. Therefore, the CDI shows
course deviation five nautical miles left and right of course. A vertical
deviation bar positioned two dots to the right of the center triangle
indicates the aircraft is two nautical miles to the left of course
(figure 4-149). The center triangle also serves as the CDI’s

TO/FROM indicator and operates in the same manner as a
conventional CDI TO/FROM indicator; a triangle pointing up indicates

“to” the active waypoint while a
“down” triangle (figure 4-150)
indicates “from” the active waypoint.
The word FLAG is displayed over the
CDI when the KLX 135 is not usable
for navigation (figure 4-151).

The numerical crosstrack distance
display is especially handy when
more than five nautical miles off of
course (naturally, you yourself would
never deviate more than five nm off
course, but not everyone is as good a
pilot as you are!) If your crosstrack
