    Abstract: Methods and systems for providing off-board recharge station information for an urban air mobility (UAM) vehicle flying on an intended trip. The method includes displaying a map showing the UAM vehicle at a current location, the intended trip, and an endurance line that represents an extent of the available UAM charge. The method retrieves recharge station information including a station name, location, number of recharge ports at the station, and a compatibility type for each of the recharge ports. The method identifies recharge stations that are compatible with the UAM vehicle and can be reached from the intended trip with the UAM available charge, and also updates information associated with the identified recharge stations responsive to a received real-time status update. The method visually depicts the identified recharge stations and visually distinguishes an identified recharge station having a shortest path deviation from the intended trip.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating a vertical situation display for a noise abatement departure procedure (NADP). Other NADP relevant displays are also disclosed including display of NADP parameters on altitude tape and primary flight displays, an NADP bug on an engine display and NADP status annunciations. The methods and systems include receiving NADP parameters entered into a flight management system (FMS) on a user interface of the aircraft system. The NADP parameters include: an initial altitude at which take-off thrust should be reduced to NADP thrust, an acceleration altitude at which the aircraft should begin accelerating to a final take-off speed whilst maintaining the NADP thrust, a climb excitement altitude at which a speed target is changed to the final take-off speed whilst maintaining the NADP thrust, and an end altitude at which the NADP should be exited. The methods and systems include generating a vertical situation display for a display device of the aircraft system indicating the NADP parameters on a flight path indication.

    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to techniques that use a data communication system such as ADS-B to provide an output to alert an aircraft operator of an incorrect barometric pressure setting for a pressure altimeter, and provide the correct altimeter setting. For example, the system may compile the ADS-B Out data from other aircraft operating near a first aircraft to provide the barometric pressure setting in use by the other aircraft. A system of this disclosure may identify the altimeter setting used by majority of the other aircraft in a region of airspace. If a first aircraft's current barometric altimeter setting is different from the setting of the majority of the nearby aircraft, then the system may generate an output to alert the operator of the first aircraft of a potential incorrect altimeter setting as well as provide a suggested barometric altimeter setting.
