This report documents selected activities and results associated with the installation, validation, and flight evaluation of an FAA-owned Head-Up Display (HUD) research system as installed in a Boeing 727-100 FAA aircraft. Requisite installation, boresight, and flight validation activities, along with results obtained from a combined flight experience/flight evaluation exercise employing government pilots are presented. Pilot comments addressing HUD system performance, display symbology, control low responses, hardware implementation, and operational modes are addressed. The HUD, a one-of-a-kind flightpath oriented research HUD, was evaluated in both an inertial (INS) referenced mode and an airmass (AM) referenced mode. Overwhelmingly, there was a strong preference for the INS referenced HUD mode. (Author)
