Two concepts, vector reticle and control action display, are proposed for making manual three-axis attitude control more efficient while reducing concentration required of pilot; concepts are combined in control action reticle and in which pilot has direct control of jet valves and vector reticle which presents all auxiliary information in single three-part geometric vector, superimposed on window; control action display gives pilot instantaneous control of reticle, thus removing need for two mental integrations and reducing concentration required for tracking; results of three-axis (fixed-base) simulation studies of system.
