‐ The altitude indications are based on GPS data. Two amber dashes cover the last two digits because the GPS altitude is less accurate than the barometric altitude
‐ The vertical speed indication is no longer available.
Let me try to understand: static air data is deleted from the system? Is that what is going on in this mode?
