Aircraft display technology has advanced to the state where the flight path display, an integrated format on which both the vertical and horizontal path are graphically represented, is feasible. This report researches efforts made to design flight paths for use in both fixed wing and rotary wing aircraft. Results from comparison evaluations of flight path and non-flight path displays are discussed and conclusions drawn with respect to desirable display symbology. An hypothetical flight path display designed as a result of the findings in the referenced studies is proposed for future testing and evaluation.
