Abstract: A method includes displaying, on an electronic display, an electronic checklist. The method further includes determining whether the electronic checklist includes a checklist item associated with states of multiple components of a subsystem associated with the electronic checklist. The method further includes, based on determining that the electronic checklist includes the checklist item associated with the states of the multiple components, displaying, on the electronic display, a single option that is selectable to send control commands to the multiple components.

Abstract: A touch screen bezel design that is optimized for use by a pilot during in-flight operations, which include vibrations, turbulence, and other factors affecting direct interaction with a touch screen. The bezel is further designed to include bezel indices which support touch interaction by a finger when a pilot's arm is near full extension as well as in other suboptimal postures. The bezel is also designed to elicit understanding that the screen it surrounds is touch-enabled, providing a common interface look and feel for all touch-enabled screens on the flight deck.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, a method includes displaying information corresponding to automatically controlled engine thrust levels during a reduced engine thrust period of flight of an aircraft. The information corresponds to one or more parameters associated with a flight control computer of the aircraft. In an alternate aspect, the displayed information includes alphanumeric information formatted in accordance with a sequential order of the automatically controlled engine thrust levels. In a further aspect, the alphanumeric information corresponds to first, second and third engine thrust levels.
