Abstract

See full text

A flight-worthy electronics package that connects into the airborne electronics of a passenger aircraft and to that aircraft's passenger visual display system provides passengers with a variety of information real-time displays. Information that may be displayed, as desired, is flight information such as ground speed, outside air temperature or altitude. Other information that may be displayed is a map of the area that the aircraft is flying over at any particular moment. Perhaps most useful to the passengers is destination information. Besides being able to display a chart of the terminals with all its aircraft gates, and identifying the gate at which the aircraft will be arriving, connecting flight information listing flight numbers, times, gates and destination may be displayed in conjunction with the terminal chart. A flight-worthy electronics package causes these displays to appear automatically on a real-time basis as determined by the programming of the system.
