Operational procedures and modes of an experimental 4D guidance system are described from the pilot's point of view. The system consists of the experimental avionics equipment referred to as STOLAND and a specially developed software package for the STOLAND digital computer. A capture mode of the system provides arrival time control and automatic tracking of the 4D flight path from any feasible initial aircraft state to any waypoint. Precise arrival time at a waypoint is achieved by means of speed control or, if large delays are required, by path stretching. Continuous recomputation and display of the capture flight path prior to engaging the system permits the pilot to determine the exact moment for terminating a holding or path stretching maneuver in order to achieve a specified arrival time.
