摘要: 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.

摘要: Display systems, controllers, and methods are provided. A display system for an aircraft includes a display unit, an input device, and a controller. The controller is communicatively coupled with the display and the input device and is configured to retrieve an electronic checklist that includes a plurality of tasks including an annotated task associated with at least one of a note, a warning, a caution, and task information. The controller is further configured to hide from view the at least one of the note, the warning, the caution, and the task information in an image of the electronic checklist based at least in part on viewing criteria. The controller is further configured to generate a signal that causes the display unit to visually present the image.

摘要: The virtual camera system supplies terrain views to occupants of an aircraft, by employing a virtual reality image generator, disposed on the aircraft, that generates a terrain display image corresponding to a perspective based on supplied position data. At least one aircraft position sensor disposed on the aircraft supplies actual aircraft position as a position data to the virtual reality image generator. A display device disposed on the aircraft and coupled to the virtual reality image generator to reproduce the terrain display image for viewing by passengers within the aircraft. The image generator includes processor programmed to generate the terrain display image using actual aircraft latitude and longitude relative to the Earth and further using a synthetic altitude that differs from the actual aircraft altitude. The synthetic altitude is used above actual aircraft altitudes of a predetermined threshold; otherwise the actual aircraft altitude is used.

摘要: The disclosed embodiments describe cover detection systems, controllers, and aircraft. The aircraft includes the controller and parts of the cover detection systems. A cover detection system includes an engine, a first sensor, a second sensor, an engine cover, and a controller. The engine has moving parts and defines a fluid opening. The fluid opening exposes the moving parts to an ambient environment. The first sensor component is located proximate to the engine and the second sensor component is configured to interact with the first sensor component. The engine cover assembly includes an engine cover and a second sensor. The engine cover is configured to cover the fluid opening. The controller is configured to determine whether the engine cover is installed on the engine based on an interaction between the first sensor component and the second sensor component.

摘要: A throttle quadrant system for an aircraft includes: a first throttle handle to control a first engine of the aircraft, the first throttle handle having a first activatable visual indicator integrated therein; a second throttle handle to control a second engine of the aircraft, the second throttle handle comprising a second activatable visual indicator integrated therein; and at least one controller to control activation and operation of the first activatable visual indicator and the second activatable visual indicator. The at least one controller responds to first engine data related to operating status of the first engine to selectively activate the first activatable visual indicator. The at least one controller also responds to second engine data related to operating status of the second engine to selectively activate the second activatable visual indicator.

摘要: A flight guidance panel for an aircraft includes a subpanel display, a joystick, rotary encoders, a deflection sensor, and a processor. The subpanel display indicates autopilot modes and flight value goals and has a top-level state and a subpanel control state. The joystick is for user interaction with the subpanel display. The rotary encoder is coupled with the joystick to receive rotation inputs from a user of the joystick. The deflection sensor is coupled with the joystick to detect a deflection input from the user of the joystick. The processor is programmed to: change a state of the subpanel display to the subpanel control state corresponding to a selected subpanel in response to receiving the deflection input while the subpanel display is in the top-level state; and change the flight value goals in response to receiving the rotation inputs while the subpanel display is in the subpanel control state.

摘要: Aircraft, enhanced flight vision systems, and methods for displaying an approaching runway area are provided. In one example, an aircraft includes a display disposed in a cockpit area. A radar imaging and post-processing arrangement is in communication with the display via a processor. The radar imaging and post-processing arrangement is operative to generate a radar image of an approaching runway area, generate a symbology corresponding to the approaching runway area and/or compare the radar image to a synthetic vision (SV) database to align an SV runway area with the radar image to define an aligned SV runway area, and to communicate the symbology and/or the aligned SV runway area to the display.
