SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AIRPORT SELECTION AND DISPLAY OF RANGE REMAINING DURING ENGINE OUT CONDITIONS

Abstract:

Flight guidance systems and methods that provide an airport selection in response to an EO condition in a single engine plane. The airport selection takes into consideration factors such as optimal approach type, runway length, weather, terrain, remaining battery time, and the like. Additionally, various also generate and display a visual indication of a remaining glide range when the EO condition is happening; the remaining glide range determination is based, at least in part, on terrain.
