by the HSI. Because the horizon heading is only displayed in 30 degree
increments, it should only be used for general heading awareness and
not be used to establish the aircraft heading.
Airport Signs and runway highlight
If APTSIGNS is selected, a “sign post” along with a representation of the
runways will be plotted on the SVS display for nearby airports that are
contained in the G1000 airport database. The signpost will become
visible when you are within approximately 15nm of the airport. The text
identifier for the airport will be displayed inside the airport sign when the
aircraft reaches approximately 8 nm from the airport. Once the aircraft
reaches approximately 4.5 nm from the airport, the airport sign will be
removed but the runways presentation will remain. If an approach to a
specific runway has been loaded and activated, that runway will be
highlighted on the SVS display.
When on an approach, the highlight for the approach runway will be
considerably larger than “normal” to assist in visually acquiring the
runway. The oversized highlight will automatically shrink around the
runway depiction so that the runway is proportionally displayed when the
aircraft is within approximately ½ nm of the threshold. Runway
highlighting is displayed even if APTSIGNS are turned off.
