Patent number: 9989378Abstract: A method for displaying an attitude of an aircraft includes receiving a roll angle, a pitch angle and a yaw angle of the aircraft, generating a display image indicating the roll angle, the pitch angle and the yaw angle, and displaying the display image on a display device. The display image includes a spherical shell with a track angle scale projected onto the spherical shell along a latitude line of the spherical shell and with a pitch angle scale projected onto the spherical shell along a longitude line of the spherical shell. Furthermore, the display image includes a graphical aircraft attitude indicator inside the spherical shell rotated with respect to the spherical shell such that the graphical aircraft attitude indicator indicates the roll angle, the pitch angle and the yaw angle of the aircraft with respect to the spherical shell.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2014Date of Patent: June 5, 2018Assignee: Airbus Defence and Space GmbHInventors: Christoph Vernaleken, Marco Opitz, Harald Neujahr, Eugenio Ferreira, Lutz Broszio
