Method and apparatus to display landing performance data
First Claim
1. A display system for displaying landing performance data for an aircraft, the system comprising:
- a processor adapted to receive precipitation data and data representative of an aircraft landing and operable, in response thereto, to supply one or more image rendering display commands; and
a display device coupled to receive the image rendering display commands and operable, in response thereto, to render an image representative of (i) a runway and (ii) a segment of the runway that will be used to land and stop the aircraft.

Abstract
A display system is provided for displaying runway landing data. The system includes a processor and a display device. The processor is adapted to receive data representative of an aircraft landing operation and is operable, in response thereto, to supply one or more image rendering display commands. The display device is coupled to receive the image rendering display commands and is operable, in response thereto, to render an image representative of a runway and a segment of the runway that will be used to land and stop the aircraft during the aircraft landing operation. A method for displaying the runway landing data is also provided.

14. A method of displaying landing data of an aircraft on a display system, the method comprising the steps of:
-
processing precipitation data representative of an aircraft landing; calculating a percentage of an available landing distance of a runway that will be used to land and stop the aircraft during the aircraft landing based at least in part on the processed aircraft landing data; and displaying an image representative of the runway and a segment on the runway, the segment representing the calculated percentage of the runway, on the display system. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)

22. A display system for displaying landing performance data for an aircraft, the system comprising:
-
a processor adapted to receive precipitation data and data representative of an aircraft landing and operable, in response thereto, to supply one or more image rendering display commands; and a display device coupled to receive the image rendering display commands and operable, in response thereto, to render an image representative of (i) a runway, (ii) a first runway segment representing a percentage of the runway that will be used by the aircraft when the aircraft is subjected to a first set of predetermined parameters; and
(iii) a second runway segment representing a percentage of the runway that will be used by the aircraft when the aircraft is subjected to a second set of predetermined parameters.
