Abstract

A display system and method for a display, in real-time, of a confidence display, displaying the protected airspace associated with a projected trajectory of a first aircraft and the protected airspace associated with a projected trajectory of at least one additional aircraft during a phase of flight. The system processes data representative of a phase of aircraft flight of a first aircraft and at least one additional aircraft and determines the protected airspace associated with a projected trajectory of each aircraft based at least in part on the processed data. An image representative of the determined protected airspace of each aircraft is displayed on the display system as a confidence display.
