This study evaluates symbols and formats for the F/A-18 Hornet head- up display (HUD) and Attitude Directional Indicator (ADI) for use by pilots in recovering from unusual aircraft attitudes. Two surveys were conducted to collect pilot opinions on various symbols and formats, based on past experimental research and current recommendations. For the HUD symbols according to the amount of information these symbols provide for the pilot while he is in an unusual attitude. In some cases, the pilots also were asked to choose their preferred symbols. The second survey was based on the results of the first and was administered to 56 F/A-18 pilots. These pilots selected their preferred HUD or ADI display formats, choosing one from two to five possibilities in each case. The specific symbols and formats that were evaluated are described in detail. Survey results are provided, and recommendations are made for display implementation and for further research and testing of symbols and formats. Keywords: Jet fighters, Attack bombers, These.

This is a thorough description of this increasingly important technology, starting from the development of head-up displays (HUDs), particularly specifications and standards and operational problems associated with HUD use. HUD involvement in spatial disorientation and its use in recognizing and recovering from unusual attitudes is discussed. The book summarizes the design criteria including hardware, software, interface and display criteria. It goes on to outline flight tasks to be used for evaluating HUDs and discusses the impact of HUDs on flight training. Recent work indicates that a HUD may allow a significant reduction in the time required to train a pilot on a particular aircraft, even considering non-HUD-related tasks. The author concludes with a review of unresolved HUD issues and recommendations for further research and provides an impressive bibliography, glossary and index. Within the military aviation sector the book will be of use to industry, research agencies, test pilot schools and air force training establishments. In the civil area regulatory authorities, airlines and industry will also have an increasing interest.

Maintaining situational awareness is a critical task in piloting an aircraft. Focusing on spatial orientation, the attitude displays provide information necessary for the pilot to control the aircraft's position in space. In the F/A-18 aircraft the Head-Up-Display (HUD) is the primary attitude indicator. This study compared electrically drawn attitude direction indicator (ADI), the current F/A-18 HUD, and the concurrent use of the ADI and HUD for recovery from unusual attitudes. Results indicated significantly faster recovery times for the ADI. Reasons may be attributed to the superiority of the color coding of the ADI for sky and ground over the dashed and solid pitch lines used for ground/sky coding on the HUD format. Pilot preferences were split between using the ADI as a convenient crosscheck and reduction of visual workload when using the HUD and ADI concurrently compared to using the HUD alone. The results from this study, which employed an electrically drawn ADI, parallel those found in earlier experiments comparing an electromechanical ADI to the F/A-18 HUD. They suggest that a centrally located ADI in the F/A cockpit would aid pilots during unusual attitude recovery.
