I was trying to find out what the criteria are for the display of the airfields displayed on the ND of the B777. Is it company defined or is it Boeing and if so what are the requirements.

Thanks all :)

To my knowledge that depends completely on the NAV database that is loaded and the company that provides it for you...

One of Boeings customer options is the minimum runway length one must choose when buying the aircraft. The usual values for a B777 are 5500', 6000', 6500'.

So if you choose 5500' the ND will only display airports with runways 5500' or longer.

This of course all depends on your NAV database.
