Abstract
An aircraft-based display system providing a graphical user interface (GUI) for display of terminal charts further displays an enroute selector for engagement to select and display enroute charts. Engagement with the enroute selector brings up an enroute menu for selecting for display enroute charts associated with the ownship position or previously selected enroute charts; selection of an enroute chart 1) makes the selected chart the new active enroute chart and 2) displays the enroute chart. Each chart in the enroute menu includes a play button; engagement with the play button brings up an enroute selector GUI allowing selection of an enroute region and chart type. The enroute selector GUI displays all available enroute charts for a selected region and chart type, allowing the selection and display of the desired enroute chart in graphical as well as textual format.
