Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for guiding or otherwise assisting a stabilized approach to a destination by presenting an energy state associated with an aircraft with respect to a target energy state for the stabilized approach. One method involves providing a graphical indication of a targeted energy state at a first position, a second graphical indication of a current energy state at a second position, and a third graphical indication of a configuration change at a third position. The distance with respect to a reference axis between the first position and the second position corresponds to a difference between a target parameter value associated with the targeted energy state and a current parameter value associated with the current energy state, and while a second distance between the first position and the third position with respect to the reference axis corresponds to an estimated amount of time before the configuration change.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of presenting an energy state associated with an aircraft on a graphical user interface display, the method comprising:\n providing, on a display device onboard the aircraft, the graphical user interface display comprising a reference axis, a first graphical indication of a targeted energy state at a first position with respect to the reference axis, a second graphical indication of a current energy state of the aircraft at a second position with respect to the reference axis, and a third graphical indication of a configuration change relative to a current aircraft state at a third position with respect to the reference axis, the configuration change comprising an aircraft configuration prescribed by a procedure for the aircraft, wherein:\n a first distance between the first position and the second position with respect to the reference axis on the graphical user interface display corresponds to a difference between a target parameter value associated with the targeted energy state and a current parameter value associated with the current energy state; and \n a second distance between the first position and the third position with respect to the reference axis on the graphical user interface display corresponds to an estimated amount of time before the configuration change; and \n dynamically updating the second distance on the graphical user interface display as the aircraft travels, wherein the first distance between the first graphical indication and the second graphical indication is dynamically updated to reflect an updated parameter value associated with an updated energy state of the aircraft.
