GO AROUND (GA) AND TAKEOFF (TO) MODES
NOTE: TO and GA modes are only available when the G5 is configured as a
backup unit in a G3X/G3X Touch system.
Go Around and Takeoff modes are coupled pitch and roll modes and are annunciated
as both the vertical and lateral modes when active. In these modes, the flight director
commands a constant set pitch attitude and keeps the wings level. The GA Switch
is used to activate both modes. The mode entered by the flight director depends on
whether the aircraft is on the ground or in the air.
Takeoff Mode provides an attitude reference during rotation and takeoff. This mode
can be selected only while on the ground by pushing the TO/GA Button. The flight
director Command Bars assume a wings-level, pitch-up attitude.
Pressing the TO/GA Button while in the air activates the flight director in a wings-
level, pitch-up attitude, allowing the execution of a missed approach or a go around.
Go Around Mode arms Selected Altitude Capture Mode automatically, and attempts to
modify the aircraft attitude (i.e., with the
NOSE UP/DN
Wheel) will result in reversion
to Pitch and Roll Hold modes.
