Control-Display Investigation of Complex Trajectory Flight Using the Microwave Landing System. Analysis Phase.

Abstract

This report presents an analysis of the overall control-display task for complex trajectory flight using MLS equipment. It explores the interrelationships of complex trajectory definition an geometry, approach plate design data entry, monitoring, displays, and controls. It recommends several electro-mechanical and electronic control-display configurations. It also recommends four candidate MLS equipment configurations with various levels of capability which are applicable to the USAF inventory. MLS integration studies are presented for the C-130A/D, F-111A/E, A-7D, F-15A, and KC-10A.
