H.4.6 Angle of Attack (AOA) Configuration Page
The Angle of Attack (AOA) Configuration page is accessible only when an AOA input is enabled on the
LRU Configuration page (Appendix H.4.2
). The configuration mode page only allows viewing and
deleting the AOA calibration values, the AOA calibration cannot be performed in configuration mode. The
In-Flight AOA Calibration procedure follows.
H.4.6.1 AOA Calibration (Performed In-flight)
Installations that include a GAP 26 and which have AOA enabled require that an AOA calibration be
performed to enable AOA functionality. The AOA calibration is used to find the four AOA settings shown
in Figure H-23. These calibrations must be done while in flight. The AOA Setup page
(Figure H-5
) on PFD 1 is used for the AOA cal procedure, and is accessed in normal mode (requires that an
AOA input is enabled on the LRU Configuration page, see Appendix H.4.2
).
WARNING
AOA calibration involves flying the aircraft at low airspeeds and angles of attack at or near
the stall point. Do not perform AOA calibration until the aircraft's stall recovery
characteristics are well-understood. Before AOA calibration, make sure the aircraft is clear
of all traffic and at a safe altitude for stall recovery.
