mode annunciation corresponding to the selected naviga-
tion receiver (with the exception of VOR, which is an-
nunciated ‘VAPP’ to indicate VOR Approach Mode) is
displayed in the AFCS Status Bar. This mode uses the
selected navigation receiver deviation and desired course
inputs to fly the approach.
