HAZARD AVOIDANCE
DISPLAYING TAWS-B DATA
TAWS-B uses yellow (caution) and red (warning) to depict terrain and obstacles (with heights greater than
200 feet above ground level, AGL) alerts relative to aircraft altitude. Colors are adjusted automatically as
the aircraft altitude changes. The colors and symbols in Figure 6-149 and Tables 6-21 and 6-22 are used to
represent terrain, obstacles, and potential impact points.
