    Abstract: An aircraft includes a display, a support system, and an avionics system. The support system includes at least one operable component, where at least one of the support system and the at least one operable component is configured to operate with an operating value falling within a predefined normal operating range. The avionics system is programmed to: calculate a rate of change of a value of at least one of the support system and the at least one operable component; determine whether the value will exit a predetermined normal operating range within a predetermined time based on the rate of change of the value; and indicate on the display that the value is expected to exit the predetermined normal operating range. The avionics system can leverage this function to declutter displays, and then present additional information to the crew when a value is trending out of range.

    Abstract: An engine inlet cover and a method for covering an engine inlet are provided. A method for covering an engine inlet includes providing a collapsible cover comprising a connection pin defining an axis; a frame including interconnected arms; and a web. Further, the method includes storing the collapsible cover in a stowed configuration in which the arms are aligned. Also, the method includes rotating the arms from the stowed configuration to an operating configuration in which the arms are radially spaced about the axis, enclosing the frame in the operating configuration with the web to define an interior volume, and placing the cover over the engine inlet.

    Abstract: A flight guidance panel includes a housing, a first flight guidance display, a second flight guidance display, a standby display, and a controller. The housing defines a first longitudinal side and a second longitudinal side. The first flight guidance display is disposed in the first longitudinal side of the housing and the second flight guidance display is disposed in the second longitudinal side of the housing. The standby display is disposed between the first flight guidance display and the second flight guidance display. The controller is configured for generating at least one functional panel indicating flight parameters on the first flight guidance display and on the second flight guidance display. The controller is further configured for generating standby flight information for presentation on the standby display.

    Abstract: An aircraft system is associated with operation of the aircraft and includes a control component selectable between a first state and a second state. Manipulating the control component between the first state and the second state changes an operation of the aircraft system. The processor is in electronic communication with the control component, the display, and the input device. The processor is programmed to: determine whether an event associated with the aircraft system has occurred; retrieve, from an electronic aircraft manual, crew guidance that includes a crew action to manipulate the control component in response to the event; generate a graphical representation of the crew guidance and the control component; generate a selector on the graphical representation for the control component to be manipulated by the crew action; and manipulate the control component in response to selection of the selector at the input device.
