Airdrop Guidance Display Format for Precision Airdrop Application on an Auxiliary Display Equipped Aircraft

“…French, Hopper, Reising, and Snow (2006) conducted research integrating a HUD flight reference with pathway symbology. Within these design constructs, a key component was missing with regard to ADG: specific flight direction with regard to fine-tuning ownship state to comply with precise CARP parameters.…”

“…Consistent with NDFR symbology, the resulting ADG display ( Figure 2) includes airspeed, altitude, and heading information presented in a digital representation around a white line that mimics the shape of aircraft wings, tail, and fuselage (French et al, 2006). Underneath the aircraft reference symbol, indicated airspeed is presented on the left (140 kt), altitude is presented on the right (1,300 ft), and heading (82°) is presented between airspeed and altitude within the white aircraft ownship symbol.…”
