Any E170/175/190/195 folks out there that will tell me what "VTA" means when it appears in magenta on the ADI?

Thanks

Search 'VTA+E170' and you get the answer.

D'ya know, if I hadn't already tried that and several similar other searches, I wouldn't be asking here and opening myself up to smartass answers like that.
Thanks a bunch!
Anyone actually know?

Vertical Track Alert...

Well I just used Fantom's search string and found many references to the VTA and why it appears, plus what it means.

Perhaps not such a smartass answer after all?

Have you used the search string including the quotes which narrows it down and makes it more focussed, or are you just using the words on their own?

In reference to the tech doc from post #5...

I would be more concerned that the E170 hybrid IRU does not meet the 4nm/30min test...damn
