Abstract :
The use of head-up displays in allowing aircraft to operate in low visibility is examined. A head-up guidance system that incorporates modern optics, holographic display, wide field of view, pilot-in-loop, optimized intuitive symbology, high quality sensors including ring laser gyro platforms, and modern electronics is described. The results of online studies are discussed.<>
