ABSTRACT:
A flight control display shows a representation of terrain, the horizon, an aircraft with a fuselage and aircraft wings, and a gamma ladder. The observer has a viewing direction at least in a predefined attitude range, which viewing direction is directed along the momentary flight path. The aircraft is therefore rotated depending on its momentary angle of incidence and angle of yaw with respect to the observer's viewing direction. The representation of the terrain is obtained from the relative position of a geodetic system of coordinates XG, YG, ZGand an aerodynamic system of axes of the airplane, in which case a reference line of the gamma ladder coincides with the horizon.
