Abstract: Current TAWS systems generally do not provide alerts based on structures or wire obstacles. Such structures and wire obstacles include transmission and electrical wires, and power lines, bridges, and buildings. The current system allows just such alerting. Such alerts are particularly useful for helicopter aircraft, which commonly fly at heights where such structures and obstacles are present near the normal flying altitude of the aircraft. Certain implementations of the system and method include a method of creating an obstacle for use in a terrain awareness warning system, including: receiving data about a first terminus of an obstacle; receiving data about a second terminus of the obstacle; constructing a virtual volume about the first and second termini and a volume therebetween; and storing the virtual volume, whereby a database may be constructed of virtual volumes for use in addition to terrain information to provide alerting on obstacles for an aircraft.

Abstract: A flight management system for controlling navigation of an aircraft includes a path guidance panel having at least one mode selector for allowing user selection of guidance mode in which the aircraft is to operate. The system also includes at least one display device having rendered thereon a navigational map. A computer module receives aircraft data from one or more aircraft components, at least one of the aircraft components being a guidance system. The computer module is configured to use information obtained from the guidance system to cause the display device to render on the navigational map a current flight plan path that is the aircraft is following.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for a path guidance panel. The path guidance panel provides separate display screens for showing the lateral and vertical guidance information. Each screen shows the current state of the respective guidance system, and shows what, if anything, the respective guidance system will do next. This provides a convenient display for the pilot to see the current and future states of the guidance systems of the aircraft.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described here to provide a degree or level of certification to a resident application such as an operating system, e.g., Linux®. In a Linux® implementation, the operating system provides a robust environment including many seasoned communication stacks, e.g., TCP/IP, USB, and the like. However, Linux® is not certified to the level necessary to be a part of many avionics applications. To eliminate the need to certify all of such an operating system, such certification being highly costly, the avionics application itself may be protected so that the operating system cannot alter the application's operating environment, e.g., application code and data, once the application is loaded and running. In this case, only the application requires certification at the highest level, and not the operating system such as Linux®.

Abstract: An aircraft hover system for enabling an aircraft to hover at a target spatial location represented by GPS location coordinates. The hover system includes a display screen rendering a display including live video feed of the terrain below the airborne aircraft, a first mark overlaying the video feed, the first mark representing the current position of the aircraft relative to the terrain, and a perimeter surrounding the first mark, the portion of the terrain within the perimeter being substantially magnified compared to that of the terrain outside of the perimeter. The hover system is configured such that, as the aircraft approaches the target spatial location, the distance between the first mark and a second mark on the display gradually decreases until and finally the first and second marks coincide; the second mark representing the target spatial location.
Abstract translation: 一种用于使飞机能够悬停在由GPS位置坐标表示的目标空间位置的飞行器悬停系统。 悬停系统包括呈现包括空中飞行器下方的地形的实时视频馈送的显示屏幕，覆盖视频馈送的第一标记，表示飞行器相对于地形的当前位置的第一标记以及围绕该地面的周边的周边 第一标记，与周边外部的地形相比，周边内的地形部分被大大放大。 悬停系统被配置为使得当飞行器接近目标空间位置时，显示器上的第一标记和第二标记之间的距离逐渐减小，直到第一和第二标记重合为止; 代表目标空间位置的第二个标记。
