A system for increasing visibility of flight information on a visual display, comprising: a flight management information unit, said flight management information unit operable to determine at least one of a current position, direction, and pitch of an aircraft; a data storage unit, said data storage unit operable to store target data and terrain data; and a processing unit coupled to said flight management information unit, said processing unit operable to: receive said current position, direction, and pitch of said aircraft; receive said target data and said terrain data; generate a first plurality of control signals for a visual display (212, 300), said first plurality of control signals representing a flight path marker for said visual display (212, 300); generate a second plurality of control signals for said visual display (212, 300), said second plurality of control signals representing an aircraft zero pitch reference line for said visual display, said aircraft zero pitch reference line associated with said pitch of said aircraft; generate a third plurality of control signals for said visual display (212, 300), characterised in that said third plurality of control signals representing a gap in said aircraft zero pitch reference line for said visual display (212, 300), said gap associated with a position of said flight path marker on said visual display (212, 300); and generate said third plurality of control signals for said visual display (212, 300) so as to adjust a transparency of said gap and enhance a visibility of at least one of said target data and said terrain data on said visual display (212, 300). a flight management information unit, said flight management information unit operable to determine at least one of a current position, direction, and pitch of an aircraft; a data storage unit, said data storage unit operable to store target data and terrain data; and a processing unit coupled to said flight management information unit, said processing unit operable to: receive said current position, direction, and pitch of said aircraft; receive said target data and said terrain data; generate a first plurality of control signals for a visual display (212, 300), said first plurality of control signals representing a flight path marker for said visual display (212, 300); generate a second plurality of control signals for said visual display (212, 300), said second plurality of control signals representing an aircraft zero pitch reference line for said visual display, said aircraft zero pitch reference line associated with said pitch of said aircraft; generate a third plurality of control signals for said visual display (212, 300), characterised in that said third plurality of control signals representing a gap in said aircraft zero pitch reference line for said visual display (212, 300), said gap associated with a position of said flight path marker on said visual display (212, 300); and generate said third plurality of control signals for said visual display (212, 300) so as to adjust a transparency of said gap and enhance a visibility of at least one of said target data and said terrain data on said visual display (212, 300). receive said current position, direction, and pitch of said aircraft; receive said target data and said terrain data; generate a first plurality of control signals for a visual display (212, 300), said first plurality of control signals representing a flight path marker for said visual display (212, 300); generate a second plurality of control signals for said visual display (212, 300), said second plurality of control signals representing an aircraft zero pitch reference line for said visual display, said aircraft zero pitch reference line associated with said pitch of said aircraft; generate a third plurality of control signals for said visual display (212, 300), characterised in that said third plurality of control signals representing a gap in said aircraft zero pitch reference line for said visual display (212, 300), said gap associated with a position of said flight path marker on said visual display (212, 300); and generate said third plurality of control signals for said visual display (212, 300) so as to adjust a transparency of said gap and enhance a visibility of at least one of said target data and said terrain data on said visual display (212, 300).
