About this title

Synopsis

Display systems are the vital indicators that monitor the various avionics, environmental, and electronic systems that keep aircraft in the air. Aircraft Display Systems introduces the reader to the means by which information is presented to the crew, enabling them to carry out their tasks safely and successfully. Aircraft Display Systems provides an assessment of the current and potential future information needs in civil and military flight decks. It also offers the reader an appreciation of the technologies available to the display engineer in order to provide solutions that meet those needs. This volume will be an invaluable source of information to all those involved in aircraft design, build, testing, and investigation.

About the Author

Malcolm Jukes BSc, FRAeS, FIEE has over 35 years’ experience in the aerospace industry, mostly working for the Smiths Group at Cheltenham, UK. Among his many responsibilities as Chief Engineer for Defence Systems Cheltenham, Jukes managed the design and experimental flight trials of the first UK Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS) and subsequently the development and application of shadow-mask CRT technology for multi-function head-down displays on the F/A-18, AV8B, Eurofighter Typhoon, and EH101 aircraft. In this role, and subsequently as Technology Director, he was responsible for product technical strategy and the acquisition of new technology for Smiths UK aerospace products. One of his most significant activities was the application of AMLCD technology to civil and military aerospace applications. Jukes was also a member of the UK Industrial Avionics Working Group.

Jukes is now an aerospace consultant operating in the areas of displays, display systems, and mission computing. He is the author of an important chapter in Civil Avionics Systems – a book by Ian Moir and Allan Seabridge, also co-published by Professional Engineering Publishing and AIAA.
