Zusammenfassung:A method is provided for indicating the boundaries of a required navigational performance (RNP) corridor on an aircraft's map display (20). The method includes the steps of producing an aircraft leg segment symbol (26) on the map display (20), establishing an RNP value (38), and scaling the RNP value to the map display (20) field of view (40). The method further includes the step of generating an RNP corridor boundary graphic (34) on the map display (20) offset from the aircraft leg segment symbol (26) by the scaled RNP value (42).
