ABSTRACT:
An aircraft display and control system includes a primary flight director and a head-up display. A flight management system computer generates a current aircraft velocity vector reticle, a desired aircraft velocity reticle, a speed reticle, an acceleration reticle, and a pitch reticle. The flight management system computer conformably generates a waypoint icon in the pilot's view through the windshield superimposed upon the position in the view of the geographic location and altitude of the actual waypoint.
