Abstract
An arrangement for head-up display system components incorporated into an aircraft cockpit forward of the ejection plane (124) provides space for accommodating a head-down display device (132) immediately beneath the over-nose vision surface (128) and adjacent to the ejection plane (124). The arrangement of components minimizes the amount of angular change in the pilot's line of sight that is required when the pilot moves his head to change his view from the outside real world scene to the head-down display device.
