Abstract

An aircraft standby display device includes a set of data sources, a data processing unit, and a display. The display presents altitude control indicators representing speed, altitude, attitude, and a heading scale that includes a characteristic symbol indicating a next route point of an aircraft flight plan. The heading scale is independent of the altitude control indicators. The display also presents a quantitative value that: (1) indicates the remaining distance of flight of the aircraft to reach the next route point and (2) is associated with the characteristic symbol.
