Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable mediums for dynamic selection of advanced approach procedures

Abstract:

Systems .[.and.]. methods.Iadd., and non-transitory computer readable mediums .Iaddend.directed to generating an adaptive glide slope angle and allowing a pilot to interact with the generated glide slope angle are provided. The systems .[.and.]. methods.Iadd., and non-transitory computer readable mediums .Iaddend.retrieve, from a navigation database (NDB), a designated approach procedure for the aircraft, and identify a designated glide slope angle (D_GSA) based thereon. The systems .[.and.]. methods.Iadd., and non-transitory computer readable mediums .Iaddend.receive sensed actual weather data and sensed aircraft status data and generate an adaptive glide slope angle A_GSA based thereon. The systems .[.and.]. methods.Iadd., and non-transitory computer readable mediums .Iaddend.allow modification of and modify, or prevent modification of, the designated approach procedure with the A_GSA based on the determination of whether or not the A_GSA is compatible with the designated approach procedure.
