Abstract Objective To study the display effect of one-color and multi-color with head-up display (HUD) in aircraft cockpit and recommend the best color scheme. Methods Fifty-four fighter pilots participated in the experiment. In virtue of level maneuver task of dynamic simulated flight test procedure, the pilots’ performance and their appraisal to the color configurations in daytime and nighttime background were explored. Results According to the results of simulated flight, the results of green plus magenta format were the best. By view of the subjective appraisal, the rating score of green plus magenta was superior to the other color configurations. Conclusions The display effect of HUD information with primary green and magenta as important parameters is the best of all color configurations. This color configuration is recommended in HUD information color coding.
