A flight control system includes a fly by wire system operable to provide predictive termination point symbology overlaid on a synthetic imagery displayed by a display system in response to a control system and a sensor system. A method to facilitate a VTOL aircraft approach to a terminal point includes integrating a flight director mode with a control system to provide a stabilized approach path to a termination point.
