A system for the display and indication of information on the windshield of an airplane to the aircraft's pilot. The information to be displayed is converted into optical images which are transferred by a plurality of bundles of optical fibers to a projection system positioned beneath the windshield. The projection system projects the images onto the windshield such that they are reflected therefrom in the axis of the pilot's field of vision.
