A flight deck system includes a cockpit display device (108) on which an airport display is displayed and a controller (102). The controller (102) is configured to generate a runway condition graphic (209, 302, 322) having at least three different segments (304, 306, 308) to be overlaid over or positioned adjacent to a depiction of a runway on the airport display, wherein each segment (304, 306, 308) of the runway condition graphic (209, 302, 322) is associated with a different segment (304, 306, 308) of the runway and configured to provide a graphical indication of a contaminant condition for the associated segment (304, 306, 308) . The controller (102) is further configured to categorize the contaminant condition of each segment (304, 306, 308) of the runway; visually code each segment (304, 306, 308) of the runway condition graphic (209, 302, 322) in a manner that is representative of the contaminant condition category for its associated segment (304, 306, 308) of the runway; and cause the generated runway condition graphic (209, 302, 322) to be overlaid over or positioned adjacent to the depiction of the runway on the airport display.
