Abstract
An aircraft notification system, the aircraft notification system having a processor and a memory communicatively connected to the processor, the memory containing instructions configuring the processor to receive aircraft angle data from a blended wing body aircraft (BWB) having a main body and a wing with no clear demarcation between the wings and the main body along a leading edge of the aircraft, determine an aircraft orientation as a function of the aircraft angle data, wherein the aircraft orientation comprises at least a pitch angle of the BWB while the BWB is in contact with a ground surface, transmit the aircraft orientation to an aircraft display system and visually display the aircraft orientation through the aircraft display system.
