A research effort has been undertaken to determine the feasibility of employing a forward-looking cockpit display to provide information that would enable aircraft to utilize reduced separation, and hence increased runway capacity, through the application of multiple-glide-path approach techniques. The current study was an initial exploration into this concept in which traffic information was added to a HUD format to allow the pilot to monitor the traffic situation and to self space on a lead aircraft during a simulated single glide-path approach. The results of this study indicate that this display concept can provide sufficient information to the pilot for traffic monitoring and self separation. Additionally, the pilots noted that an increase in situational awareness, relative to conventional instrument flight, was provided by the traffic information on the display.

Simulation is an effective means for system development. A simulation system of the General aviation (GA) avionics using HLA is designed in this paper. The design and implementation process of federates is also described, taking the Cockpit Display federate as an example. The system has good interoperability, reusability and scalability, which meet the requirements of avionics simulation. The system can be widely used in GA avionics design and the training of pilots.
