Abstract
Technologically improved flight guidance systems and methods that generate thrust guidance related to a potential flight path angle are provided. The thrust guidance is provided as acceleration commands that may be communicated to the pilot in an intuitive manner, such as with an acceleration cue on a primary flight display (PFD) system. The provided acceleration cues are uniform across the flight envelope and present consistently for two basic thrust guidance modes.
