Roll Hold Mode (ROL)
If Roll Hold Mode is activated as a result of a mode reversion, the flight director rolls the wings level.
When the flight director is activated or switched, Roll Hold Mode is selected by default. This mode is annunciated as ‘ROL’ in the Autopilot Status Box. The current aircraft bank angle is held, subject to the bank angle condition.
