Abstract
A method for displaying current operating parameters of an aircraft, by substantially simultaneously displaying first, second and third icons. The first icon represents the aircraft. The second icon includes a graphical crosshair having two independently positionable portions that together form a graphical crosshair positioned proximal to the first icon. The third icon on the display represents the current track or course of the aircraft, and may be formed as an arrow pointing in the direction of the current track or course, and has a length representative of the current speed of the aircraft. The three icons are preferably located within a background that may overlay other information, such as a map, on the display, and together provide greater situational awareness to the pilot by placing important information on the display in a useful format and at the portion of the display to which the pilot devotes primary attention.
