Abstract :
The authors describe the process of developing a microwave landing system (MLS)/RNAV control display unit and associated simulation capability for retrofit in older-generation electromechanical aircraft cockpits. Functional specifications, design, development, and fabrication of the control display unit, requirements of a retrofit kit, and installation and integration into a typical phase-II simulator are discussed. Operational evaluation in a full-mission simulation environment is also discussed. Recommendations are offered for applications and implementations in actual aircraft
