Abstract
Systems and methods useful in providing equivalent visual operation (EVO) for the flight crew of an aircraft independent of the actual outside weather and visibility conditions through the use of synthetic vision (SV) and enhanced vision (EV) technologies are described. The systems and methods described herein can contribute toward gaining an operational credit that can expand the operational capabilities of an aircraft. The systems and methods described herein can provide relatively simple and intuitive solutions for activating and operating such systems.
