Abstract: An adaptive system in an aircraft for presenting speed and altitude recommendations for supersonic flight on an aircraft display unit is provided. The system is configured to: predict, based on received aircraft sensor inputs from on board aircraft sensors, an optimum speed and altitude profile while flying in a supersonic phase of flight between a plurality of waypoints for the current aircraft model, wind conditions, and mission; and determine using a SONIC boom prediction model whether the optimum speed and altitude profile would cause an acceptable BOOM effect per a predefined BOOM effect threshold limit during flight between the plurality of waypoints, wherein a BOOM effect is a perceived sound level on land due to unrestricted supersonic flight over land, and wherein a BOOM effect threshold limit is an acceptable perceived sound level on land due to supersonic flight over land.

Abstract: An obstruction detection and warning system includes a plurality of edge light emitters, and a processing system. The edge light emitters are mounted on a structure that has a width and a height. Each edge light emitter is operable to emit a light beam at an angular rate, and that is encoded with data that indicates its position and its height. The processing system receives the light beam emitted from each edge light emitter and decodes the encoded data from the received light beam to determine the width and height of the structure, and to determine a distance from an aircraft to the structure. The processor also compares an active trajectory and current altitude of the aircraft to the width and height of the structure and the distance to the structure and, based on the comparison, generates and supplies situational cues to an operator of the aircraft.

Abstract: A method in a trail aircraft for monitoring the separation distance between the trail aircraft and a lead aircraft during a flight deck interval management paired approach (FIM-PA) procedure is provided. The method includes: receiving an assigned spacing goal (ASG); receiving traffic information regarding the lead aircraft that indicates the position, heading and ground velocity of the lead aircraft; retrieving a predetermined tolerance limit and traffic information regarding the trail aircraft that indicates the position, heading and ground velocity of the trail aircraft; setting a range limit that is at least as great as the absolute limit indicated by the ASG plus the tolerance limit; monitoring the range and ground speed differential between the lead aircraft and the trail aircraft; and generating a caution alert indicator when a monitored condition detected from monitoring the range and ground speed differential indicates a potential problem.
