    摘要: Interior panels for interiors of aircraft, aircraft, and methods from making interior panels for interiors of aircraft are provided. In one example, the interior panel includes an outer covering that has a first surface. The first surface is configured to be exposed to the interior of the aircraft. A second surface is disposed opposite the first surface. The second surface has a first pattern formed therein that is hidden from the first surface. A first light source is operative to generate a first light and is disposed adjacent to the second surface generally aligned with the first pattern. When the first light source generates the first light, a first illuminated pattern corresponding to the first pattern formed in the second surface is visible on the first surface.

    摘要: An aircraft includes a passenger cabin, a plurality of settable cabin environment systems, and an aircraft environment management system. The passenger cabin has an environment. The plurality of settable cabin environment systems are in operable communication with the passenger cabin and each control an aspect of the environment based on a setting. The aircraft environment management system is in electronic communication with the plurality of settable cabin environment systems and is programmed to: receive a preset capture request from a user; store, as an environment preset, the setting as it existed for each of the plurality of settable cabin environment systems at a time of receipt of the preset capture request; receive a preset recall request for the environment preset; and recall the environment preset by adjusting the setting of each of the plurality of settable cabin environment systems according to the environment preset.

    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.
