A method for providing a display to a flight crew of an aircraft includes providing a horizontal navigation display (241) that includes data regarding the movement of the aircraft in a horizontal direction and an aircraft icon (231) indicating a position of the aircraft in the horizontal direction. The method further includes providing a vertical navigation display (242) that includes data regarding the movement of the aircraft in a vertical direction and an aircraft icon (232) indicating a position of the aircraft in the vertical direction. The horizontal and vertical navigation displays are disposed adjacent to one another on a single display device. The method further includes receiving a first input to the display device indicating a selection of the horizontal navigation display aircraft icon (231), and, in response to the selection of the horizontal navigation display aircraft icon (231), engaging a horizontal navigation control feature of an autopilot system of the aircraft.
