    摘要: The following teachings are of a portable autonomous device and method operating independently of aircraft flight control equipment. The device can be easily moved from one aircraft to another. The device measures the acceleration of the aircraft from the instantaneous speed and the runway distance covered from the start of the acceleration. Once the runway length and take-off speed is input, the device calculates the remaining distance to safely reach the take-off speed. If the remaining runway distance is not enough for the safe take-off, the device provides visual or audible information about the situation and signals to the pilot. In other embodiments, the determination and presentation of the remaining runway length may be implemented in the aircraft flight control equipment.

    摘要: Methods and systems for generating a vertical situation display for a noise abatement departure procedure (NADP). Other NADP relevant displays are also disclosed including display of NADP parameters on altitude tape and primary flight displays, an NADP bug on an engine display and NADP status annunciations. The methods and systems include receiving NADP parameters entered into a flight management system (FMS) on a user interface of the aircraft system. The NADP parameters include: an initial altitude at which take-off thrust should be reduced to NADP thrust, an acceleration altitude at which the aircraft should begin accelerating to a final take-off speed whilst maintaining the NADP thrust, a climb excitement altitude at which a speed target is changed to the final take-off speed whilst maintaining the NADP thrust, and an end altitude at which the NADP should be exited. The methods and systems include generating a vertical situation display for a display device of the aircraft system indicating the NADP parameters on a flight path indication.
