TTV reticle

[steve_giraffe]

Hi

 

On starting up the A10 from cold I always seem to not be able to see the TVV on the hud.

I follow the start up guide but I always dont get the TVV on the hud displayed which makes me have to use the standby alttitude indicator.

What am i doing wronf please

 

Thanks

You have to wait for the EGI/CDU to align until it reaches 4.0.0.8. Then you choose EGI as HUD mode (default is HARS,) and then you turn on the EAC.

Do you set your guidance system from HARS to EGI? Only EGI mode will provide you with a TTV!

 

Is waiting until 4.0.0.8 really necessary? I thought one could select NAV on CDU as soon as "INS NAV READY" is visible on the CDU display. It starts flashing once the alignment process reaches 4.0.0.8 of course. But I never tried it actually.

If you go through the proper startup checklist the INS will reach 4.0.0.8 without you having to wait for it.
