Electronic Airborne Displays.

During recent years, considerable progress has been made in the use of airborne electronics as an aid to the pilot in carrying out his more and more demanding tasks. Digital data handling devices, especially, have become an important part of modern airborne equipment and have been discussed intensively at several meetings and symposia. Meanwhile the electronic display has proved best suited to transferring information from the airborne electronic system to the human eye and thereby maintaining the optimum relationship which is necessary between an aircraft and its pilot. However, the problems of airborne electronic displays have not been the focus of intensive discussion hitherto, and this symposium was therefore devoted to this topic.
