AI/ST-F 1 Airbus “Less Paper in the Cockpit” Concept Less Paper in the Cockpit A modern approach to the cockpit information management By Christian MONTEIL Dty. Vice President Training & Flight Operations Support & Services AI/ST-F 2 Objectives To find a new way how to manage operational documentation on the flight deck To provide an easy access to an increasing amount of complex information To provide an accurate computation of performance analysis - Real time computation To provide information for a given aircraft tail number To provide a unique platform for several applications To reduce revision and distribution cycle and to ensure technical data accuracy To ease and improve the updating process AI/ST-F 3 FOVE aims at integrating the Performance Modules and the Flight Operations Technical Information. aims at exchanging information between the applications. F.O.V.E. is based on an open architecture and consequently information of FOVE modules can be shared with external applications.

Weight & TAKE OFF MEL FCOM Airline Balance In Flight Info LANDING AI/ST-F 6 Welcome Page AI/ST-F 7 FCOM Consultation AI/ST-F 8 TakeOff AI/ST-F 9 Weight & Balance AI/ST-F 10 Design Principles for Performance Modules General – All functions are accessible from the keyboard to avoid the use of the mouse – Color scheme • background/frame/field entry color modifiable • Night vision/Day vision switch(Alt -V) AI/ST-F 11 Design Principles for Performance Modules Main Screen – Limited number of screens – All important information readable on the main screen – Data or information all contained and grouped in “frames” – Function keys are used to access each frame – Arrow keys are used to navigate within each frame AI/ST-F 12 Design Principles for Performance Modules (2) The Frame – When a function key is pressed, the corresponding frame receives the focus on the first field. – The focus is clearly marked by a blue arrow between the field label and the field entry. The label is marked with a blue box. – The field is composed of a label followed by the units used and followed by the entry value. AI/ST-F 13 Design Principles for Performance Modules (2) The Frame – When a function key is pressed, the corresponding frame receives the focus on the first field. – The focus is clearly marked by a blue arrow between the field label and the field entry. The label is marked with a blue box. – The field is composed of a label followed by the units used and followed by the entry value. – A field can be displayed in 3 different ways: • No entry is possible, the parameter is written in plain • The entry is entered by the pilot, the entry area is a box • The entry is selected from a list of available options, the entry area is a box with an arrow down to indicate a list 1 2 3 AI/ST-F 14 Design Principles for Performance Modules (2) The Frame – When a function key is pressed, the corresponding frame receives the focus on the first field. – The focus is clearly marked by a blue arrow between the field label and the field entry. The label is marked with a blue box. – The field is composed of a label followed by the units used and followed by the entry value. – A field can be displayed in 3 different ways: • No entry is possible, the parameter is written in plain • The entry is entered by the pilot, the entry area is a box • The entry is selected from a list of available options, the entry area is a box with an arrow down to indicate a list – The Status Bar offers help to the pilot when a field receives the focus. AI/ST-F 15 Design Principles for Performance Modules (3) Protection and Security – All fields are protected against involuntary modification and this protection is removed by typing the ENTER key. – When the user changes any input parameter, the result frame is emptied immediately. – If the pilot entry is converted by the interface (e.g. unit change, …), the pilot entry is displayed in between brackets after the converted value. AI/ST-F 16 Design Principles for Performance Modules (4) Managing Error Entries – Errors are managed at 4 different levels: – Error level A • validation of a discrete datum against available range AI/ST-F 17 Design Principles for Performance Modules (4) Managing Error Entries – Errors are managed at 4 different levels: – Error level A • validation of a discrete datum against available range – Error level A+ • validation of a datum against other field of the same frame Temperature range checked against runway condition AI/ST-F 18 Design Principles for Performance Modules (4) Managing Error Entries – Errors are managed at 4 different levels: – Error level A • validation of a discrete datum against available range – Error level A+ • validation of a datum against other field of the same frame – Error level B • validation of data of a frame with respect to other frames AI/ST-F 19 Design Principles for Performance Modules (4) Managing Error Entries – Errors are managed at 4 different levels: – Error level A • validation of a discrete datum against available range – Error level A+ • validation of a datum against other field of the same frame – Error level B • validation of data of a frame with respect to other frames – Error level C • validation of all data which can only be done by executing a separate computation. For example: Loading distribution outside CG envelope AI/ST-F 20 Design Principles for Performance Modules (5) Display of Results – Differentiation of useable results from unusable ones. – Unusable results are either: • displayed in Magenta/Red when the maximum permissible takeoff weight is lower than the actual weight • not provided and an error message explains the reason of the failure AI/ST-F 21 Design Principles for Performance Modules (5) Display of Results – Differentiation of useable results from unusable ones. – Usable results are displayed in numerical and graphical format (when applicable) AI/ST-F 22 Coming Soon In Flight Module 34000 35000 36000 37000 38000 39000 60000 61000 62000 63000 64000 65000 66000 67000 68000 Weight (1000 x kg) Pressure Altitude (ft) MAX REC ALT (ft) MAX REC CRZ ALT (ft) MAX CLB ALT (ft) OPTIMUM ALT (ft) 68038 66997 Weight (kg) 61498 66836 61330 Landing In Flight MEL AI/ST-F 23 Coming Soon - Landing module Dispatch Condition – Required Landing Distance – Approach climb limiting climb In-Flight Condition – Normal or in-flight failure affecting approach/landing performance – Actual landing distance • Dry, Wet, contaminated runway • With/without Autobrake • with/without Autoland – Approach climb limiting weight – Calculation of VAPP in case of in-flight failure AI/ST-F 24 Coming soon - In-Flight module A complement to the FMS performance computations – Maximum & Optimum altitudes, – Climb performance – Cruise performance – Descent performance – Holding performance, – Engine-out gross flight path descent trajectory (drift down), – Wind altitude trade (optimum FL determination), – In-Cruise quick check for abnormal cases (landing gears or airbrakes extended, deviation from CDL, …) Tabular or graphical presentation of results AI/ST-F 25 Sample External Application - Route Manual AI/ST-F 26 Conclusion Presently 45 airlines are using at least one module of the LPC. 10 % of yearly increase is expected. LPC is the first application brick paving the way for AFIS (Airbus in-Flight Information Services) and A380 Future developments should privilege: – The context based access to the information – One-way interactivity with aircraft systems between cockpit systems and LPC – New technologies capabilities (intelligent graphics,audio,video…) – Level of interactivity with FMS (One-way or 2-way ?) |
