MISSED APPROACH PROCEDURE DISPLAY SYSTEM AND METHOD
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of conveying missed approach procedures to a pilot, comprising the steps of:
- rendering a graphic representation of at least one leg of the missed approach procedure on a display;
determining whether the aircraft is at least substantially flying the at least one leg of the missed approach procedure; and
selectively varying at least one visual characteristic of the rendered graphic based on the determination of whether the aircraft is at least substantially flying the at least one leg of the missed approach procedure.

Abstract
A system and method of conveying missed approach procedures to a pilot are provided. The system and method include rendering a graphic representation of at least one leg of the missed approach procedure on a display. A determination is made as to whether the aircraft is at least substantially flying the at least one leg of the missed approach procedure. At least one visual characteristic of the rendered graphic is selectively varied based on the determination of whether the aircraft is at least substantially flying the at least one leg of the missed approach procedure.

12. A display system for conveying missed approach procedures to a pilot, comprising:
-
a display configured to render a graphic representation of at least one leg of the missed approach procedure; a processor coupled to the display, the processor operable to determine whether the aircraft is at least substantially flying the at least one leg of the missed approach procedure and, in response to the determination, to selectively command the display to vary at least one visual characteristic of the graphic rendered thereon. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A method of generating missed approach procedure data representative of a missed approach procedure that comprises a plurality of remarks, the method comprising the steps of:
-
parsing the plurality of remarks into a plurality of tokens, each token comprising one or more alphanumeric characters; generating aircraft constraint data based on each of the remarks; and generating graphic data based on each of the remarks.

21. A method of generating missed approach procedure data representative of a missed approach procedure, the method comprising the steps of:
-
receiving air traffic control communications that include missed approach procedure instructions; parsing the received instructions; generating aircraft constraint data based on the parsed instructions; and generating graphic data based on the parsed instructions. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23)
