An exploratory simulation study of a head-up display for general aviation lightplanesThe concept of a simplified head-up display referred to as a landing-site indicator (LASI) for use in lightplanes is discussed. Results of a fixed-base simulation study exploring the feasibility of the LASI concept are presented in terms of measurements of pilot performance, control-activity parameters, and subjective comments of four test subjects. These subjects, all of whom had various degrees of piloting experience in this type aircraft, performed a series of simulated landings both with and without the LASI starting from different initial conditions in the final approach leg of the landing maneuver.
