1. A method for indicating the boundaries of a required navigational performance (RNP) corridor on an aircraft'"'"'s map display, the method comprising:
- producing an aircraft leg segment symbol on the map display;
establishing an RNP value;
scaling the RNP value to the map display field of view (FOV); and
generating an RNP corridor boundary graphic on the map display offset from the aircraft leg segment symbol by the scaled RNP value.

Abstract
A method is provided for indicating the boundaries of a required navigational performance (RNP) corridor on an aircraft'"'"'s map display. The method includes the steps of producing an aircraft leg segment symbol on the map display, establishing an RNP value, and scaling the RNP value to the map display field of view. The method further includes the step of generating an RNP corridor boundary graphic on the map display offset from the aircraft leg segment symbol by the scaled RNP value.

15. A program product, comprising:
an avionics display program adapted to; generate a map display having a field of view (FOV) and including a leg segment symbol; establish an RNP value; scale the RNP value to the map display FOV; and produce an RNP corridor boundary graphic on the map display separated from the leg segment symbol the scaled RNP value; and
computer-readable media bearing the avionics display program.- View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19)

20. An aircraft display system, comprising:
-
a monitor; at least one data source; and a processor coupled to the monitor and the at least one data source, the processor configured to generate on the monitor a map display including a leg segment symbol and RNP corridor boundary graphics, the RNP corridor boundary graphics separated from the leg segment symbol by a gap corresponding to the RNP value scaled to the field of view of the map display.
