Angle of attack display

摘要

An aircraft safety system includes a Stall/Spin Warning & Recovery Computer, an angle of attack sensor, a side slip sensor and an angle of attack display. The Stall/Spin Warning and Recovery Computer detects whether the aircraft is in a safe condition or an unsafe condition. The angle of attack display includes a first configuration that displays information indicative of safe aircraft condition when the orientation detector detects a safe condition and a second configuration that displays information indicative of unsafe aircraft condition when the computer detects an unsafe condition. The display may transition from the first configuration to the second configuration when the orientation detector detects an unsafe condition and then to a third configuration, which may include visual control-input instructions that enable recovery to a safe condition.

1. An aircraft angle of attack display, comprising:
a first content configuration, comprising a representation of a first angle of attack, that displays information indicative of a safe aircraft condition, a second content configuration, comprising a representation of a second angle of attack, that displays information indicative of an unsafe aircraft condition, and a third content configuration, comprising visual control-input instructions that replace the representation of the second angle of attack when one or more detected conditions indicate the aircraft has failed to return to a safe aircraft condition.
