Zusammenfassung:A device includes one or more processors configured to access sensor data generated during a time window by one or more sensors onboard an aircraft. The one or more processors are configured to determine, based on the sensor data, a lateral acceleration dataset indicating frequency and magnitude of lateral buffet of the aircraft detected during the time window. The one or more processors are configured to determine, based on the sensor data, a vertical acceleration dataset indicating frequency and magnitude of vertical buffet of the aircraft detected during the time window. The one or more processors are configured to determine a buffet metric based on the lateral acceleration dataset and the vertical acceleration dataset. The one or more processors are configured to determine a buffet indicator based, at least in part, on the buffet metric. The one or more processors are configured to provide the buffet indicator to a display.
