摘要： Systems and methods for assisting a flight crew of an aircraft with controller-pilot data link communication (CPDLC) are provided. A display device defines a display area on a flight deck of the aircraft. A controller is operatively coupled to the display device and configured to control a presence of a CPDLC window containing a CPDLC message in the display area. A plurality of tactile buttons are disposed proximally to each other on a glare shield panel of the flight deck. The plurality of tactile buttons comprises a first tactile button operatively coupled to the controller for selectively instructing the controller to cause the presence of the CPDLC window in the display area by actuation of the first tactile button, and a second tactile button configured to permit the flight crew to respond to the CPDLC message by actuation of the second tactile button.
