408 AFMAN 11-217V1 3 JANUARY 2005 difference between the solid climb lines from the identical, but dashed, dive lines in the flight path scale. Any confusion or delay in initiating proper recovery inputs may make recovery impossible. 20.3.1.1. NOTE: Unless your HUD is endorsed as a PFR, do not use it when spatially disoriented, for recovery from an unusual attitude, or during lost wingman situations; use the head down display anytime an immediate attitude reference is required. Typically, head down displays are inherently easier to use in these situations due to the larger attitude coverage, color asymmetry between the ground and sky, and reduced interference from the outside visual scene (glare, optical illusions, etc.). For this reason, even if your HUD is endorsed as a PFR, current Air Force guidance requires the head down display be available to the pilot with not more than one hands-on switch action. 20.3.2. Flight path information. Most HUD flight path information is based on an INS. Many INSs have the capability to compute and display different types of airspeed (calibrated, true, or ground) and heading (magnetic or ground track). Though the INS and HUD have become increasingly more reliable, they can fail insidiously and with little or no warning. If such a failure occurs the pilot must realize that the types of airspeed and heading selected may change as the displays revert to a different mode of operation, and the FPM may disappear, leaving the pilot with a fixed pitch reference at a surprisingly different climb or dive angle. Be prepared for any such failure by constantly cross-checking the head-down attitude reference and other performance instruments. 20.3.3. Interpretation. Remember that the HUD picture is only a small piece of the “big picture,” so what the pilot sees on the HUD must be accurately interpreted. That is to say, you may be on-speed with the FPM at the correct flight path angle but aiming well short of the runway, or you may be on-speed with the FPM on the desired aim point, but at too high a descent angle, resulting in an unacceptably high sink rate, or at too low a descent angle resulting in a dragged-in final and short touchdown. 20.3.4. Fixation. Fixation on HUD information can cause a breakdown in a proper instrument crosscheck and contribute to poor situational awareness. Information displayed on the HUD can be very compelling to the pilot. The tendency for the pilot to fixate on the HUD is increased by the display of excessive and unnecessary information or when the HUD brightness level is not adjusted properly for the background contrast. Minimize the tendency to fixate on the HUD by maintaining an efficient composite crosscheck and ensuring the HUD brightness level is properly adjusted. 20.3.5. HUD Field of View. HUD symbology may also obscure objects within the HUD field of view. When non-essential HUD information is displayed or when the HUD brightness level is excessive, the probability of obscuration is dramatically increased. Proper HUD settings (including elimination of non-task-essential information and adjusting the brightness to the proper level) are imperative to prevent potential hazards to safe flight. 20.3.6. Conventional Crosscheck. Finally, pilots should remain proficient in the conventional instrument crosscheck for their specific aircraft. Regardless of the type HUD you have (endorsed as a PFR or not), it is important to occasionally fly an instrument approach or accomplish a level-off without using the HUD so you retain your
AFMAN 11-217V1 3 JANUARY 2005 409 proficiency in the event of a HUD malfunction. The results may indicate a need to practice your conventional instrument crosscheck. Using HUD information incorrectly or at the wrong time can actually increase pilot workload, but timely, proper use of it can help you fly more precise instruments on a routine basis. 20.3.6.1. WARNING: Even under the best of conditions, practice HUD out approaches can result in increased pilot workload and possible approach deviations. During approaches in known weather conditions or reduced visibility, it is recommended that all available situational awareness tools be utilized (to include the HUD) to ensure the aircraft is successfully landed.
