Abstract: A control apparatus configured to control communication between an on-vehicle device and a device coupled to the on-vehicle device via a cable, the control apparatus comprising: a cable length setting part configured to set a length of the cable; and a communication controlling part configured to perform, based on the length of the cable set by the cable length setting part, control for ensuring communication quality between the on-vehicle device and the device.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for airspace navigation. Airspace navigation information for an aircraft is displayed in a first mode, such as, in a horizontal mode. One or more navigation events may then be detected, such as, proximity to a terrain feature, weather, traffic etc. The airspace navigation information for the aircraft is then displayed using dual modes, e.g., a horizontal mode and a vertical mode. Display parameters, such as colors, resolution, distance, scale, etc. may be set automatically or by a user. The display may also include information, such as avionics systems information, and communications information.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for flight instruments in an electronic format. The flight instruments may appear in a standard configuration, including both primary flight instruments and secondary flight instruments. The apparatus and methods may also provide some or all of the primary flight instruments in one visual representation.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for automated flight preparation. Methods and apparatus may be used to automatically determine gross weight, weight and balance, take-off distance, rate-of-climb, and flight dynamics, such as fuel, time and distance for an aircraft. In addition, information such as airspeed system calibration, and power-off stall speed in angle of bank may be calculated.
