Abstract: An aircraft terrain awareness warning system is disclosed that includes an interface for entering flight plan details of an aircraft including at least one waypoint. The terrain awareness warning system is configured such that potential-terrain-collision alerts are suppressed in the aircraft during landing operations performed at waypoints associated with landing zones.

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: 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: 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: 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 translation: 这里描述了系统和方法，以向常驻应用程序（例如操作系统，例如Linux®）提供认证程度或级别。 在Linux®实现中，操作系统提供了一个强大的环境，包括许多经验丰富的通信栈，例如TCP / IP，USB等。 然而，Linux®没有被认证成为许多航空电子应用程序的一部分所必需的程度。 为了消除对所有这样的操作系统的认证的需要，这种认证是非常昂贵的，因此可以保护航空电子设备本身，使得一旦应用被加载，操作系统就不能改变应用的操作环境，例如应用代码和数据 并运行。 在这种情况下，只有应用程序需要最高级别的认证，而不是像Linux®这样的操作系统。
