The main idea here is that the LEGS page is where the flight plan is displayed in its leg-by-leg sequence, including the SID/route segments, distances, and any altitude or speed constraints. For takeoff, the PM uses this view to verify that the aircraft is aligned with the intended path after liftoff and that the first leg and its constraints are correct. Seeing the active leg sequence at a glance helps ensure the aircraft will intercept the proper route and follow the planned climb profile.

The Takeoff Reference page is the place to enter and review performance data like V speeds and flap settings, which are crucial for configuring the aircraft but not where the PM typically monitors the flight path after takeoff. The ND page and Route page show navigation displays and the route, but they don’t present the leg-by-leg progression as directly as the LEGS page.
