Head - Up Display

A head-up display gives pilots access to the critical flight information needed to safely fly the aircraft while allowing them to focus their attention outside the cockpit for potential conflicts or threats.

A HUD projector sends critical flight, navigation and aircraft energy management data to a glass screen, called a combiner, hanging at eye level between the pilot and the windshield. As the pilot peers through the combiner glass, he or she can view the outside world and also see airspeed, altitude, heading, course, and flight-path guidance symbology on the screen.
