Abstract

A method is disclosed for generating and displaying a location, time, amount of one or more transitions along a flight path of a vehicle to ensure sonic boom values remain within permissible threshold values. The method may include receiving speed data, altitude data, and flight path data, including environment data, for a flight path of the vehicle, and generating, for each of one or more transitions along the flight path of the vehicle, at least one of a transition location, of upcoming locations along the flight path, a transition time, and a transition amount, based on the received speed data, altitude data, and flight path data, and a permissible threshold boom value of the upcoming transitions along the flight path. The method may also include outputting the generated transition location, transition time, and transition amount for the one or more transitions to a display system.
