Institution National Aerospace Laboratory NLR Date 1974-04-14 Abstract This report presents the results of an experimental program which was conducted to evaluate a linear rate field display. Various display formats are investigated. The status display configurations are compared with a flight director configuration whose design is briefly described and based on modern manual control theory. The experimental results reveal that the flight director configuration is superior to the status display configuration both in terms of system performance and pilot workload. Furthermore, it is apparent from the results, that rate information is useful for the task considered. When provided by means of a moire pattern this information can be derived peripherally which is important for high visual input load situations. The use of a secondary workload task is demonstrated and modifications are suggested.
