Abstract
Embodiments of a flight deck display system deployed onboard a rotary wing aircraft are provided, as are embodiments of a method carried-out by a flight deck display system. In one embodiment, the flight deck display system includes a controller operably coupled to a cockpit display device. The controller is configured to: (i) generate a Primary Flight Display (PFD) on the cockpit display device including a vertical speed indicator; (ii) establish a first vertical speed alert threshold; (iii) compare the first vertical speed alert threshold to a current vertical speed of the rotary wing aircraft; and (iv) if the current vertical speed of the rotary wing aircraft exceeds the first vertical speed alert threshold, produce a first vertical speed alert on the PFD by altering the appearance of the vertical speed indicator in a first predetermined manner.
