Human Interface Criteria for Vertical Situation Awareness Displays
- Aerospace Standard
- ARP5430A
- Stabilized
Scope
-
the system is an on-board (flight deck based) system displaying vertical situation information to the flight crew; multiple sources of vertical position data will be used and some of the data may be transmitted to the airplane from the ground or satellite
-
no changes to the existing airspace infrastructure should be required
-
there will be pilot-in-the-loop/manual or automatic involvement in all flight path adjustments
-
information provided should be accessible by all pilots
-
the system will address fixed wing airplane types
-
the system will be based on the English language, but other languages may have to be considered
-
the system may be operated during all phases of flight
-
the system may be operated under different metric conventions (e.g., QFE/QNH or feet/meters)
-
the VSAD is not intended to replace any of the alerting system components (EICAS, TAWS, TCAS, GPWS, Altitude Alert, etc.). There will, however, be a close relationship between the VSAD and TAWS since both use some of the same sensors, data bases, and address some of the same issues
-
human centered design principles will be applied to the system design
-
“lessons learned” from past implementations will be applied to the design
-
the display function may be stand-alone or part of a multi-function display
-
the display will meet harmonized certification requirements and it will be designed with the understanding that if it is in the flight deck the flight crew will use it.

Issuing Committee
G-10EAB Executive Advisory Group
The SAE G-10 Aerospace Behavioral Engineering Technology committee focuses on human factors in all facets of aircraft development and operations. It defines appropriate recommendations that could provide cost effective and efficient operation of aircraft (machine) through the use of aerospace behavioral engineering technology. The group is comprised of 18 subcommittees dedicated to creating, preparing, and maintaining all relevant specifications, standards, and requirements for addressing human factors in aircraft development and operation. These subcommittees include:
