Side View

How do I see the Side view?

A Side view showing terrain ahead viewed in cross-section is accessed via one of two ways:

1.       Via Display options:

Find this option via: Menu > Display options > Side view. 

2.       Pressing the Side View Navbox button. 

(First ensure the Side view Navbox is on display by selecting the tick box option.)

Find this option via: Settings > Navboxes. Then press the on-screen Navbox button ‘Side view’.

Side view displays differently depending upon whether a task is being flown or not.

If you are flying a task or navigating to a certain waypoint than Side view will slice the terrain and airspaces from your current position towards the active waypoint.

In free flight (where there is no selected waypoint, active task or “Go to” navigation) Side view will slice the terrain and airspaces from your current position towards your point of take-off.

Pressing the actual Side view on-screen will hide it once again.
