WHY HGS？

HUD OPERATIONION

MEANS?

WHAT IS HUD/HGS?

Nowadays, as the application of new

aviation technologies, we can continue to

lower the operating minima standard with

the development of airborne navigation

equipment and the advantages of

advanced technology. This can also

improve safety、 increase airline

operation ability and reduce the airport

facilities maintenance costs.

• CAAC encouragement

• CAAC Work Reports

• July 16th,2009 Duty Director LIJIAN 2009 Mid

year National Report

March 3rd, 2005 CAAC【2005】No.545

Letter on the approval of HGS operation for

Shandong airlines

In 2005 SDA commenced HGS Certification Project

“Special Approval of CAT II or

lower than CAT I minimum

standard procedures"

High reliability Enhance

situation awareness

HGS advantages

What HGS can do?

APCH WARN（activated

automatically below 500 ft)

BRAKING ACTION

RWY REMAINING

TAIL STRIKE

（monitor the pitch

angle）

PITCH LIMIT（indication

when continue increase AOA）

What HGS can do?

Build confidence

Enhance

your

confidence

especially in

raining or

Low

visibility

conditions

Shorten student time

Four flying mode

According to the data comparison of unsafe events of last 36

months 。Generally, NON-HGS:7.06 vs HGS:5.86，decreased by

17%。For 2012 NON-HGS:6.03 vs HGS:3.35，decreased by

45%。

Increase on-schedule rate

• Home at Jinan ，Qingdao as the biggest branch

• CAT II operation

• Domestic airlines, demand for new technology

Airlines status

Why HUD

• Jinan Airport

• Qingdao Airport

• Operation below CAT I，CAN impove airlines

operation ability obviously

Phase Summary

• Perfect choice for flight

• Improve safety

• Carry out CAT II & SA CAT I with CAT I facilities

• HGS means airlines and airport can improve

operation capacity with lower cost
