An unrelated question for you - I'm using the B1900d to test my GPS > changes, since it has the best GPS setup that I can find - I'm a > little surprised by the way CDI deviation is handled - I was led to > believe that in normal VOR mode, one 'dot' of CDI deviation usually > corresponded to 1nm, but in the B1900d, one dot seems to correspond to > 2.5nm (full deviation being 5nm). Is this intentional? > Ok , I did some test flights , now I see what you mean .... With the EFS 40/50 the deviation scale units depend on the navigation source:
VOR/TAC 1 dot = 5 degrees ADF 7.5 degrees LNAV or RNAV 2.5 NM LNAV/RNAV appr 0.625 NM GPS ENROUTE 2.5 NM GPS TERMINAL 0.5 NM GPS APPROACH 0.15 NM Hope that helps , I'm going over the animations again to see if I got the scale right.
