“…A first solution could be to have a constant time scale and create minimum/maximum ETA cues able to move, as the ETA cue. Moreover, it was recommended that the flap/gear cues should be more discernible, and maybe they can be presented on the PFD [23]. In addition, the cues on the trajectory line, regarding the early/delayed deceleration, should be reconsidered, so a cue leading to the optimum solution may be presented too or to provide a shorter solution space for all the IAS commands, not just for the next one.…”

“…This concept was tested in computer simulations using aircraft performance data [14], [15], [18], [30] in European airports varying in traffic load. In addition, more realistic conditions were examined in actual flight tests [4], [6], [10], [23] and sessions in flight simulators [6], [12], [13]. The procedure of CDA has been adapted to different forms, by modifying its parameters.…”

“…During this execution, the pilot remains on a supervisory role and interacts with the aircraft through automation, the autopilot. The information, such as the future trajectory, the ETA limits and the commands to be followed to achieve this goal, can be either presented as cues in an existing display, like the Primary Flight Display (PFD) [6], [13], [23], or a new interface can be designed for this purpose [5], [10], [11], [24]. The design of this pilot support interface will be based on previous work that took place for the CDA explicitly [5], [24] or in general for 4D trajectories [16] and flight envelope visualization [26].…”

With this report, my Master studies, which started in September 2018 and were spent between The Netherlands, Germany and Greece, come to an end. Starting with my courses, I had the chance to substantiate my background in the domain of Control & Simulation through the lectures of motivating Professors and the assignments that made me grow individually, but also as a team member, by tackling diverse challenges. Then, during my Internship in Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics, I had the unique opportunity to work in a renowned research institution and expand my horizons. I would like to firstly thank Prof.dr.ir. M. Mulder for bringing me in contact with my Internship Supervisor in February 2019, then in February 2020 providing me with this interesting and multifaceted Thesis topic and being eager to guide and assist me through this project. It was a privilege to discuss together the development of my project during our weekly group calls. Moreover, I was grateful to work on this project under the supervision of Dr.ir. C. Borst and Dr.ir. M. M. van Paassen, who I had the chance to meet at first in their insightful lectures during my first year in TU Delft. I really appreciated to hear their points of view and getting ideas of ways to move forward. In addition, I would like to thank Dr.ir. A. C. in 't Veld for providing a pilot's perspective into this project and Ir. O. Stroosma and ing. E. H. H. Thung for their assistance during the experimental period. I would like also to express my gratitude to my friends and roommates, in both Athens and Delft, who supported me during the challenging times of my studies. Last but not least, I would like to thank my family, who was always standing by my side during this demanding journey and providing me with the means to accomplish my goals.
