IND (indicated) — Information provided by properly calibrated and set instrumentation in the aircraft panel (e.g., “indicated altitude”).
LFOB (left-over fuel onboard) — The amount of fuel remaining on board after the completion of a one or more legs of a fl ight plan (or a direct-to).
LRES (left-over fuel reserve) — The amount of fuel remaining on board after the completion of a one or more legs of a fl ight plan (or a direct-to), expressed
in time and based upon a known fuel con sumption (fl ow) rate.
MSA (minimum safe altitude) — Used Grid Minimum Off-route Altitudes (Grid MORAs) to determine a safe altitude within ten miles of your present posi-
tion. Grid MORAs are one degree latitude by one degree longitude in size and clear all reference points within the grid by 1000 feet in areas where the highest
reference point is 5000 feet MSL or lower. If the highest reference point is above 5000 feet, the Grid MORA clears the highest reference point by 2000 feet.
TKE (track angle error) — The angle difference between the desired track and your current track. An arrow indicates the proper direction to turn to reduce
TKE to zero.
TRK (track) — The direction of movement relative to a ground position. Also referred to as “ground track”.
VSR (vertical speed required) — The vertical speed necessary to descend/climb from current position and altitude to a defi ned target position and altitude,
based upon your current ground speed.
XTK (crosstrack error) — The distance you are off a desired course in either direction, left or right.
LFOB (left-over fuel onboard) — The amount of fuel remaining on board after the completion of a one or more legs of a fl ight plan (or a direct-to).
LRES (left-over fuel reserve) — The amount of fuel remaining on board after the completion of a one or more legs of a fl ight plan (or a direct-to), expressed
