ABSTRACT:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method of dynamically transitioning into a distinct display format during unusual attitude conditions. In one embodiment, the method includes collecting attitude data, comparing current attitude to a first set attitude angle, and fading a distinct display format into a display for unusual attitude conditions when current attitude is at least equal to the first set attitude angle.
