1. An avionics system, comprising:
- a display; and
a controller communicatively coupled with the display to present an image, the controller configured to;
generate a flight clearance portion of the image including flight clearance information,generate a flight progress portion of the image including flight progress information,generate an adjustment input portion of the image, wherein the controller is further configured to generate a second portion of an airspeed column, a second portion of a vertical speed column, a second portion of an altitude column, a third portion of a heading column, or combinations thereof to generate the adjustment input portion of the image, andadjust the flight clearance portion in response to an input at the adjustment input portion of the image.

8. An avionics system, comprising:
a display; and a controller communicatively coupled with the display to present an image, the controller configured to; generate a flight clearance portion of the image including flight clearance information, wherein the controller is further configured to generate a waypoint column, a restriction column, a first portion of an airspeed column, a first portion of a vertical speed column, a first portion of an altitude column, a first portion of a heading column, or combinations thereof to generate the flight clearance portion of the image, generate a flight progress portion of the image including flight progress information, generate an adjustment input portion of the image, and adjust the flight clearance portion in response to an input at the adjustment input portion of the image, and wherein the controller is further configured to generate a hold command to achieve and maintain a constant airspeed in response to selection of a cell of the first portion of the airspeed column, to achieve and maintain a constant altitude in response to selection of a cell of the first portion of the altitude column, to achieve and maintain a constant vertical speed or a constant flight path angle in response to selection of a cell of the first portion of the vertical speed column, and to achieve and maintain a constant heading in response to selection of a cell of the first portion of the heading column.

9. An avionics system comprising:
-
a display; and a controller communicatively coupled with the display to present an image, the controller configured to; generate a flight clearance portion of the image including flight clearance information, generate a flight progress portion of the image including flight progress information, generate an adjustment input portion of the image, adjust the flight clearance portion in response to an input at the adjustment input portion of the image, wherein the controller is further configured to generate a controller pilot data link communication (CPDLC) row, a preselect row, or a combination thereof as the adjustment input portion of the image, generate received CPDLC data in the CPDLC row, generate an accept CPDLC data button of the image, and generate a vector command in response to actuation of the accept CPDLC data button.
