    SV terrain features

    How does one "zoom" terrain features in SV? Currently, the mountains are fairly diminutive, and I do not see a menu item for re-setting the zoom. Altering the zoom on the map does not change the SV terrain graphic.

    There are no zoom capabilities on our (or any other SVT system) PFD. Mountains will never look the same on a screen as they do with your own eyes. Due to the 5 degree pitch angle we use for the field of view, there is only so high the mountains will look. If we were to synthetically increase the size of the mountains, you would think you were going to run into a mountain that is actually below you. As the distance to the mountain decreases, its pitch angle on the screen increases proportionally.
