A head-up collimated display has a transverse bar positioned in accordance with a signal representing the angle of attack of the aircraft, with a corrective bias, which indicates to the pilot the flight path of the aircraft. The display includes a vertical scale positioned with respect to a horizontal reference, indicating to the pilot the angle of the path from the aircraft to a point on the ground. The angle of attack signal displayed by the bar is biased by a signal derived from the rate of change of flight path of the aircraft to compensate for the effect of errors, as caused by winds having a component in the vertical plane containing the flight path. Synthetic signals are developed for various flight conditions minimizing errors due to air mass movement and inherent inaccuracies of condition sensors.,下面是Aircraft instrument专利的具体信息内容。
