Abstract

To reduce pilot workload and increase safety, transport aircraft flight station designers have begun to introduce cathode ray tube (CRT) displays into their designs. This paper examines the concept and questions pertaining to the possible application of large electronic display devices, specifically 33.0- and 48.3-cm CRTs, to future flight station design to improve pilot performance. Large CRTs offer many intriguing possibilities such as multisegment displays and variable format size (zoom), as well as the larger display area necessary to make innovative 3-dimensional (D) formats and touch panel overlays more feasible and usable. Lockheed-Georgia Company, in conjunction with NASA, has established a program to examine these advanced display concepts for future transport aircraft flight station design.
