ABSTRACT:
An indicator instrument for aircraft may be operated in either of two modes. In an HSI mode, first indicia reflect heading, second indicia reflect selected course, and third indicia reflect course deviation. In a CDI mode, the first indicia reflect selected course, the second indicia assume a fixed position, and the third indicia reflect course deviation. A compass validity signal automatically triggers the changeover from HSI mode to CDI mode.
