Head-up display (HUD) was evaluated in simulated low-altitude high-speed terrain-following flight using four degree of freedom moving-base simulator; aircraft representative of RF-4C was programmed as test vehicle through analog computers associated with simulator; six Air Force pilots made total of 108 half-hour flights in various terrain, airspeed, and visibility conditions; pilot's tasks during flights were to maintain given clearance altitude and heading at all times; results showed that terrain-following with HUD was better than it was with in-cockpit instruments.
