From left to right, what is the default display arrangement at power up?

• A. NAV, EICAS, PFD
• B. NAV, PFD, EICAS
• C. EICAS, NAV, PFD
• D. NAV, PFD, EICAS

Answer: (B)

The arrangement is set up to give you the most useful information in a predictable sequence when you power up. On the left you see the navigation information, which gives you immediate situational reference—your route, position, and map cues. In the center you have the primary flight display, which is where the key flight data you monitor constantly lives—attitude, airspeed, altitude, and flight path. On the right is the EICAS, showing engine and systems status, warnings, and alerts for monitoring and quick awareness of any abnormalities.

This left-to-right order supports a natural scanning flow: first orient yourself with navigation, then confirm the aircraft’s flight state, then keep an eye on engine and systems health.
