Abstract:
A system installed in an aircraft automatically retrieves and displays approach minimum data to the pilot, thereby relieving him or her of the burden of searching for the desired information. The display of the data may take the form of a complete or partial image of a published approach chart. In a variation, the system may both automatically retrieve and automatically enter the desired data into the flight plan, thereby relieving the pilot of both the searching and data-entry tasks. The system may include a database, a screen, a control, and a controller.
