Claim:
1. A method of adjusting track and balance of a rotary blade, comprising: receiving data indicating track and balance of a rotary blade of interest; determining a first performance level based on the received data, wherein the first performance level is indicative of track and balance performance of the rotary blade of interest; receiving a constraint, wherein the constraint includes a one or more user-selected trimming adjustment for exclusion from a constrained adjustment solution provided by the adjustment algorithm; determining a second performance level based on the received constraint and the received data, wherein the second performance level is representative of expected track and balance performance by trimming the rotary blade of interest according to a constrained adjustment solution provided by the adjustment algorithm; displaying on a display unit the first and second performance levels for visualizing differences between the first and second performance levels; and trimming the rotary blade using the constrained adjustment solution.
