A heads up aircraft display which allows the pilot to view the display without diverting his attention from the scene ahead is disclosed. The display is designed for use on propeller driven aircraft comprised of a radially disposed row of lamps embedded in the rear surface of a propeller. Measurements of flight data are made by conventional means and converted into digital signals. These digital signals are applied to graphic generators which control lamp drivers which in turn control lamps through slip rings. The lamps are lit at the appropriate times during each revolution of the propeller to display the flight data in graphic form to the pilot. The combination of graphic generators and radially disposed lamps embedded in an aircraft propeller enables the pilot to view the display without diverting his attention from the scene ahead.
