Embodiment Construction

[0026] figure 1 A portion of an aircraft 10 is shown having a cockpit 12 . Although a commercial aircraft has been shown, it is contemplated that embodiments of the present invention may be used in any type of aircraft that allows selection and display of a flight plan. A first user (eg, a pilot) may be located in seat 14 on the left side of cockpit 12 and another user (eg, a co-pilot) may be located in seat 16 on the right side of cockpit 12 . A cockpit instrument panel or flight deck 18 having various gauges 20 and multiple multi-function flight displays 22 may be located in front of the pilot and co-pilot and may provide information to the crew to help the aircraft 10 fly.

[0027] Flight displays 22 may include primary flight displays or multi-function displays and may display a wide variety of aircraft, flight, navigation, and other information used in the operation and control of aircraft 10 . Flight display 22 is capable of displaying color graphics and text to the us...

Abstract

A method of displaying a flight plan (42) on a flight display (22) of a flight deck (18) of an aircraft (10), where the method includes displaying at least a portion of the flight plan on the display and determining an unsuitability of at least a portion of the flight plan based on at least one suitability criteria.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of displaying a flight plan, and more particularly to a method of displaying a flight plan on a display on the flight deck of an aircraft. Background technique [0002] Modern aircraft may include a flight management system (FMS). The FMS automates a wide variety of in-flight tasks and one of its main functions is the in-flight management of the flight plan. A flight plan can be modeled as a trajectory comprising a number of waypoints. The FMS may be able to receive input from the pilot regarding the flight plan, but the pilot receives no information related to the suitability of the flight plan. Contents of the invention [0003] The invention relates to a method of displaying a flight plan on a display of the flight deck of an aircraft, said method comprising displaying on said display at least a part of said flight plan, determining all parts of said flight plan based on at least one suitability criterio...
