An aircraft navigation system and a method for aircraft navigation is presented. The aircraft navigation system has a navigation-map data source, navigation-map data provided by the navigation-map data source including information about a multitude of objects O on earth surface which are of high potential visibility and high potential identifiability from elevated positions, each information for an object O ϵ O including a position and a type of the respective object O; a first system for measuring an actual aircraft position P(t); a waypoint data source providing waypoints WPi defining an aircraft intended flight track; a second system for selecting per waypoint WPi one object Oi(WPi) with Oi(WPi) ϵ O depending on given selection criteria; and a display for displaying an information I(Oi(WPi) referring the selected object Oi(WPi).
