Introduction This paper describes the benefits and features of the HGS-3500 Head-Up Guidance System™ (HGS) from Rockwell Collins that is specifically designed to be installed in aircraft with the flight deck space envelopes typically found in the light and mid-size business jet market . The HGS-3500 delivers many of the same features and benefits provided to pilots of large corporate aircraft such as those from Bombardier, Dassault, Gulfstream and HUDs installed in airtransport aircraft such as the Boeing 737 and 787 and Embraer EJets. The HGS-3500 includes an innovative, compact optical...

The Head-up Display (HUD) has been available on large aircraft for many years where it is standard equipment or a popular option. The HUD has proven itself as a valuable addition to the flight deck providing many safety and operational benefits . Flight Safety Foundation finds the HUD is an important safety tool In 2009, an independent Flight Safety Foundation study concluded that Head-up Guidance System Technology would likely have positively influenced the outcome of hundreds of accidents included in a study of turbine-powered, modern glass cockpit aircraft accidents . According to a...

The Flight Safety Foundation Study details a number of HUD features that enhance the pilot’s level of aircraft situational awareness, and thereby improve the overall safety of certain aircraft operations. These HUD related features which ultimately impact safety include: > Directing the pilot’s eyes outside the aircraft instead . of down, while still providing all the information needed to fly the aircraft > Providing conformal attitude and flight path information for improved situational awareness > Intuitively displaying speed and energy information > Displaying special symbology that...

With the aircraft flight path displayed, the pilot can visually evaluate and monitor the state of the aircraft. For example: > If the flight path symbol (FPS) is on the zero pitch “horizon” line then the aircraft is holding altitude. > If the FPS is below the line on the three degree reference line as shown in Figure 4, then the aircraft is on the glide path even though the boresight (the bar with a v shaped notch in it) shows the nose of the aircraft is pitched up above the horizon. > In a cross wind situation the pilot can concentrate on keeping the FPS on the runway even if the aircraft...

This combination of path and speed awareness makes the task of establishing and maintaining a stabilized approach . a quick and easy set-up even with a cross wind and turbulent conditions. During the landing rollout, a readout of the remaining runway helps the pilot optimize breaking and a braking effectiveness scale helps the pilot confirm that brakes . are slowing the aircraft down as expected. Non-normal situation response The flight path symbol and other information on the HUD also helps the pilot to both recognize and recover from several non-normal situations, such as: > Windshear –...

Further support of visual operations The synthetic vision view, displayed conformally on the HUD, helps the pilot maintain situational awareness by supplementing the outside world view. A powerful graphics processor generates the synthetic vision image using information selected from a worldwide terrain database based on the aircraft’s current position and orientation. . This allows the generated image to accurately match the pilot’s actual view through the HUD. This synthetic vision image is available in all weather conditions and includes the obstacle and runway information also included...

HUD benefits now available to small aircraft It has always been a Rockwell Collins goal to provide the benefits of a HUD to all classes of aircraft. With the HGS-3500, Rockwell Collins is achieving breakthrough performance in several key areas which enable realization . of this goal: > Cost – Large aircraft HUDs are custom designed to fit each aircraft type and use expensive relay optics to project the HUD image to the pilot. This made a conventional HUD exceed the budgets of small . aircraft owners. > Space – It has been a challenge to fit a conventional HUD from a large aircraft into...

HGS-3500 characteristics and performance The following table presents the characteristics and performance measures of the HGS-3500. Characteristic Description/Performance Flight deck integration The HGS-3500 is an integrated part of the Rockwell Collins Pro Line Fusion™ flight deck with common symbology and an integrated user interface. The HUD shares hardware resources with the Head-down Displays saving size, weight and power and ensuring that this important safety system is an affordable addition to the flight deck. The HGS-3500 includes pilot controls that allow the symbology and...
