Abstract
The topic of this study was an experimental display system consisting of a taxi-guidance display (TD) and a navigation display (ND). The main purpose of the TD is supporting local guidance, whereas the ND mainly supports global awareness. Two issues have been addressed: (1) ‘During taxiing, do pilots in fact use the TD for local guidance and the ND for global awareness?’ and (2) ‘What are the optimal parameter values for the TD?’. Based on recorded eye movements the first question can be answered affirmatively. Concerning the second issue it is concluded that the used reference parameter values are (close to) optimal. This is based on the parameter values selected by the participants and subjective measures.
