SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENABLING USER CONTROL OVER USE OF AIRCRAFT SENSORS LOCATED ONBOARD AN AIRCRAFT

Systems and methods enabling user control over use of aircraft sensors located onboard an aircraft. The method receives sensor signals comprising any combination of ADS signals, IRS signals and a third RA signals, and GPS signals; comparing sensor data values in the sensor signals to each other and to respective acceptable thresholds and critical thresholds that are preprogrammed; grouping avionic systems on-board the aircraft into subgroups having a same sensor reliance; presenting a graphical user interface (GUI) page on the display system, the GUI page identifying a sensor subgroup, the aircraft sensors of the respective sensor subgroup, and respective critical sensor parameters and associated critical sensor parameter data; visually distinguishing an critical sensor parameter data that exceeds the respective acceptable threshold or exceeds the respective critical threshold; and, accepting user deselections of aircraft sensors via the GUI page.
